This weekend of October 9th, 10th, and 11th, 2015 had a multitude of protests across the country at various mosques. Many rational, smart, confused people organized these events; they were so disgruntled with the little freedom they have slipping away that they blame precisely who we've been conditioned to blame since the 9/11 false flag in 2001. Muslims are not dangerous people, and radical Islam is a whole 'nother fringe group that doesn't reflect arabs and muslims. These protesters came armed, burned muslim scripture, and made a statement.
We attended the protest in Dearborn, MI; supposedly the largest arab population outside of the middle east resides in this Detroit suburb. The statist paranoia was evident; dozens of police ensured that the six anti-islam protesters were separated from the crowd of loud hippie counter-protesters. The crowd bullhorned the small group of islamophobes constantly, repeating cliche chants that accused the anti-islam protesters of being facists and such.
We had to break up this ridiculous two-sided mockery of insight. The stupid hippie counter-protesters were uninformed, annoying, and some were slightly violent (even though we were also protesting the islamophobes, one threw a full water bottle at one of us from a moving vehicle on the adjacent U.S. highway). The stupid islamophobe protesters were much better behaved, but were obviously stirring up religious hate because they've been conditioned to do so by our favorite mainstream news channels. We broke the entire thing into a harder picture to understand, prima facie.
When we arrived, fully-armed and holding pro-Muslim-freedom signs, the media swarmed us. The armed men who seemed to support the local muslim population did not fit into the two-sided protest that everyone had expected.
Anti-Muslim activists were not the only protesters with rifles at the library on Saturday. Three white armed men were carrying signs in support of the Muslim community.
"It doesn’t matter what color your skin is, or by what name you call God, or even if you believe in God, freedom is for everyone," one of the armed protesters outside the barricaded area said.

Several of the counter-protesters carried guns, but said they didn’t support an anti-Islamic message. Rekab Semaj, 23, of Oakland County, carried an AK-47, which he said was loaded.
“Just because I’m a gun owner doesn’t mean I’m Islamaphobic,” Semaj said. “Liberty is for everyone.
“Freedom has no borders and human rights are not determined by religion. I am pro-freedom.”

The anti-Islam protesters, who support open-carry rights, were met with two groups who opposed their message: members with a communist group and supporters of open-carry who said they wanted to express solidarity with Muslims.
The open-carry group that supported Muslims said it wanted to send a message that open-carry proponents are not bigots. One couple from Cadillac who support gun rights but opposed the anti-Islam message had guns colored red,white and blue along with patriotic shirts colored the same way, like an American flag.
"I'm here today to protest the Islamophobic protesters that are here bearing arms," said Rekab Semaj of Oakland County, with an AK47 rifle slung over his shoulder and a sign reading "Muslims Deserve Freedom."
"My message is that liberty is for everyone, that liberty has no borders ... Just because someone is of a certain religion does not mean they are dangerous. Just because the fact I'm a gun owner, does not mean I am inherently dangerous."

"There was a three man contingency of human rights activists carrying their own assault rifles who joined the counter-protest in defense of the People’s Second Amendment right to bear arms as well as their First Amendment rights of expression and religion."
