A "group" of protestors? The picture shows a grand total of 3 people.


From the article :colbert:
The protest against Bhandaru occurred late Friday afternoon. Perhaps 15 to 20 people attended. A man named Hassan Diis was passing around pre-printed signs in English, according to a journalist on the scene.

In case people hadn't noticed islamic countries are not real big on freedom of expression. Kind of part and parcel of the whole religion.

Freedom means able to think and analyze; challenge ideas.
That is dangerous for those that require brainwashing of the flock:\

Article fail. They forgot to include the Muhammad cartoons that caused the protest. If you're gonna protest, we've gotta see what you're protesting. :sneaky:

Stop with the false equivalence bullshit please. There simply isn't a comparison between the freedoms people enjoy in most (all?) Western countries versus non-Western countries.

There is lot's of things you can't say in most western countries. Isn't that what this thread is about?
Who's making the false equivalence?
I know it upsets you when there some Muslim bashing to be done, but oh well
Get in the ISIS thread and straighten out all those Americans calling your vets savages for burning people alive

Who the hell is Ben Ghazi? Nobody ever explains that part.
Benghazi is Vincent Foster's Department of Sharia Law name in the future. He time travels into the past at the behest of Obama to help destroy Amurica. Many people thought Benghazi aka Vincent Foster committed suicide in the 1990s, but that was just for show, as Obama recruited Vincent Foster into his future Department of Sharia Law bureaucracy and has used him as a covert asset ever since.

And all this time I thought he was an actor or something. Live and learn, eh?

And almost all Western countries
Oh, Canada is not nearly so bad as you claim. I am more convinced you are just a troll with each post you make. In this I am not alone. Comparing freedom of expression in the west to muslim countries is either trolling or ignorance.

Comparing your country to a third world country where most people struggle to eat once a day, and then strutting around is about as ignorant as you can get

You are. Either you're just trolling, or you're dumb past the point of reasoning, so either way I'll just leave you to have the last word.

Ya maybe..but I tend to rely on my real life, and nobody would say such in my real life.
Some anonymous posters on the internet trying to tell me I'm stupid really doesn't affect my world
