The Good, the Bad, and the Offensive: Ideas for Placards at a Pro-Danish Demonstration
I'll be attending a pro-Danish demonstration at UN Plaza tomorrow from 12 noon to 1 pm in New York, outside the Danish consulate. I hope to take lots of great photos of people -- thousands of people, I hope -- raising their voices in defense of Western values.
I've done my part by suggesting text for placards that my fellow Sons and Daughters of Liberty can wave around and, in need be, shove into the snouts of counter-demonstrators. Here you go:
What part of "freedom of the press" do you not understand?
1st Amendment + 2nd Amendment = Victory over Terrorists
Live Free or Die: Good for New Hampshire, Good for America
The Little Mermaid Does NOT Wear a Burkha! (great Photoshop possibility)
A Danish a day keeps Sharia away
Kufirs for Freedom
Hands off the Vikings
We're a Christian nation, but we won't turn the other cheek
The 7th century does not come after the 21st century
Free speech > Religious intolerance
Free speech rulez, repression droolz
Freedom is just another word for everything to lose
Oink if you love freedom (Photoshop alert!)
Calling Martin Luther -- Islam needs you!
Where's Martin Luther when Islam needs him?
Freedom: Where no Islamist has gone before
Get your paws off the Little Mermaid, you damned dirty jihadist! (very mean reference to Planet of the Apes)
Sharia? We don't need your stinkin' Sharia!
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin
Scarlett O'Hara to the West: "As God is my witness they're not going to lick me."
"And gentlemen now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us." Shakespeare, Henry V (adapted)
50 United States Always Trump 72 Raisins
All along the watchtower, we're defending the West's freedoms
Proud Member of the Dar al-Harb (Arabic for "House of War," those outside Islam)
I (heart) the Dar al-Harb
Proud to be a Zionist
Hands off the First Amendment (show Uncle Sam about to chop off a devilish hand reaching for a parchment document)
Here are several from "The Lord of the Rings:"
Gimli on Terrorists: They have no honor in life. They have none now in death.
Aragorn to the West: Hold your ground, hold your ground. Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down, but it is not this day. This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you *stand, Men of the West!* (Choose whatever phrase you like)
Galdalf to the West: There is a task now to be done. Another opportunity for one of the Shirefolk to prove their great worth. You must not fail me.
Gandalf to Islamists: Go back to the Shadow! You cannot pass.
