Police clad in full riot gear arrested 35 protestors rallying outside a US Marine Corp base in support of Army Pfc. Bradley Manning.

The soldier is currently being held in solitary confinement at Quantico for providing classified and sensitive data to WikiLeaks.

The "jailed" man also wore flesh-colored tights to simulate nudity, a protest against the government's treatment of Manning at the Marine Corps' brig in Quantico, Va. Manning's lawyer, David E. Coombs, complained to news media that his client was held, naked, for seven hours earlier this month.
