Raquel Saraswati posted some photos from that “shut up” protest in London yesterday, along with some (cough) skeptical comments.

That awkward moment when these guys in London used freedom of speech to protest against freedom of speech today.
.@GlobalCivility blocked me after I suggested demos against lashing of #RaifBadawi + against gender based violence.
How…civil.

@RaquelEvita Wow, very diverse crowd there…Raquel E Saraswati @RaquelEvita
@Alexdurrant7 some of the men are shouting and some are merely scowling. So diverse!
Ha! That’s a good one.

So the London march was also segregated by gender. #hijabdesk
Global civility indeed.
Trebuchet says
I have to admit I love the “Insult my mum and I will punch you — Pope Francis” sign.
Blanche Quizno says
Yes, Trebuchet – that same Pope Francis they regard as a hellbound heathen infidel enemy of Allah, worthy only of an eternity of divine torture. Or of quoting when they find him useful.
Let’s all reset our definitions and remember that it’s not “separate but equal”, it’s “separate but BETTER”!! Remember, WOMEN are superior in Islam!!! Elevated, even!
Saad says
I hope the Pope has been shown this picture. I’m sure he likes his new companions.
