Manhattan anti-Sharia demonstration dwarfed by Islam-supporting counter-protesters
The New York Daily News ^ | 06/10/2017 | Dale W. Eisnger

Anti-Muslim protesters marching in Lower Manhattan Saturday were met by a larger group of counter-protesters who drowned them out with chants of their own.

The two sides squared off in Foley Square, where ACT for America, a lobbying organization opposed to Muslim immigration, organized a “March against Sharia” - part of a series of nationwide marches the group organized Saturday.

About 100 demonstrators carrying signs with anti-Islamic slogans — one reading simply “NO MORE MUSLIMS” — shouted against Sharia law, which ACT for America argues is threatening the United States. The organization is designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-Muslim hate group.

On its website, the group wrote: “Sharia is incompatible with Western democracy and the freedoms it affords” and that ACT is “committed to protecting women and children from Sharia Law,” which it described as “including honor killing and female genital mutilation.”

The people in the picture are self-righteous bastards, who think they are morally superior to us.
The truth is that Islam preaches murder and destruction. It is not islamophobia to say the truth.

It's a DAILY SNOOZED, so of course it's a negative article.

"JEWS STANDING WITH MUSLIMS" ??????????

That's akin to carrying a sign that reads:"JEWS LOVE HITLER"/"JEWS SUPPORT NAZIS".

Poor confused
American Jews

Then again, maybe it's because they choose to ignore the terror of the sand savages their brethren in Israel face each and every day. Yeah, that must be why their behavior appears irrational.

Of course not...CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC would never tell them...That’s where most all of them get what little information they get...Them and the liberal, elite Marxist so-called “professors” at the college indoctrination centers...

The pic says it all: united against their common “enemy” (so they think), the white Christian race.

The tribe of secular liberal self-loathers is going to get a big shock someday when they see the animals they’ve crawled into bed with.

Or not. That’s what “self loathing” is all about, I suppose.

“...Do these women really know what Sharia law would mean for them?...”

My guess is they all think “Sharia” is a woman’s name and that it means Woman’s Law...What fools they are....
