#2 "But this is not an armed resistance. We are a cultural resistance,"

The little children doing folk dances in traditional costume is always wonderful, so long as the tiniest one is sat on the potty just before going on, but the amateur art shows are positively painful. And I refuse to sit through anymore poetry readings, period. Some sacrifices are too great to be demanded.

#3 It is sad to see how they are oppressed. Why, in the good ol' days under Saddam, they had the privilege of screaming "Death to America!" for hours. There were huge rallies, with thousands of people, complete with lots of security, too!

Now look at 'em. 200 people, 7 minutes, and I'm thinking there weren't a whole bunch of people with walkie-talkies ensuring a strong police presence. I'm telling you, it's sad.

#4 200 demonstrators out of a population of 7 million? I bet 10 times would come out for a demonstration against ring around the collar.

#5 Puppets, where were the giant puppets? Since when are puppets against Islam? I could have sworn Paleo TV uses them regularly in their anti-Semitic public service spots/programs. Different Mullah, different fatwa I guess.

#7 Two Hundred. LOL! They could have gotten a bigger more rowdy crowd to show up for a yard sale with "lots of baby items".

#8 Well I'm impressed- I couldn't yell for seven minutes to save my life. Go on, you try it.

#10 I'm thinking seven minutes must be just under the police response time.

#11 200 shouted for 7 minutes? Is that a Guinness Record? Now they need to hold their breath for 15 minutes.

#12 200 people is pathetic. CAIR could get more than that in any large American city.

Warning:
Do Not stand downwind of 200 rotten stank mouths that are shouting. ..OMG gag

FYI & ALERT: If any one of The 200 TOOTHLESS ONES bite you then your slow agonizing death is certain.

You see each one of the chosen 200 are inoculated with a toxic bacterial soup when TATER gives them each a DEEP TROAT KISS.

Tater SMOOCHES! LOL!
