Well unless you want to start banning articales of clothing, they weren’t saying or doing anything, so what were we suppose to shout them down for exactly? The views we think that they hold because of how they dress?

Also the Rally to restore Sanity was a single unfocused event with no direct party backing it, even if most of the attendees were probably Democrats for reasons I’ll be perfectly happy to explain if you feel I need to. None the less, it wasn’t like Jon Stewart was trying to start his own political party that needs to police itself for radicals…

The thing is James; The Keffiyeh when worn by non-Muslims means one of two things:

1. The wearer is showing “solidarity with the Palestinian people”, which means they are anti-Israel.

2. The person is very ignorant and actually think it a symbol of peace.

The second category is often teachable, but when people wearing keffiyehs are around, the place they’re at is often where Israel is about to be smeared.
