Lol at you thinking you're progressive, then make dumb statements like "Good for her! She’ll have 30 months to really focus on it while in prison. You really want me to be outraged but 9 pages in and I’m not." |
The Moroccan woman has the same rights as a Moroccan man to criticize Islam. She doesn't have the same rights as a US citizen because she's not in the US. Why is this hard to understand? |
You make no logical sense. At all. We are expressing outrage at the Moroccan government for jailing her for simply wearing a provocative t-shirt. We can condemn oppressive regimes and support those who stand up to them. |
So I guess this poster does not believe that free speech is a human right? |
Only conservative free speech. Aka hate speech. |
Have you spent any time in Morocco outside of Casablanca or Marrakesh? Because this statement tells me otherwise. Is this just a troll or rage bait? |
Boy, you really like to label people! Hahaha! I never said I was a progressive or think of my self as a progressive. 10 pages still not outraged. |
Yet you keep coming back to tell us more. I dont need to label you. You're just a shit human. |
The Moroccan government would have jailed a man for doing the same. You want Moroccan women to rights not guaranteed by their government because women in America have those rights. That doesn't make sense. |
Most countries do not provide for free speech. America is fairly unusual. Even our hat, Canada, doesn't trust their citizens with free speech. |
They probably would have jailed a man for doing the same. That's why she is fighting for them too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibtissame_Lachgar Not just because we have them here, but because everyone should be able to criticize the government in charge without being jailed. Are you seriously telling me that those rights do not make sense? |
So now we're ok with not having free speech? Or is it ok for them but not for us? I'm confused. |
Is this woman American, or Moroccan? I'm a little confused. If she's Moroccan, she should have known better than to test the system like that. If she's American she's dumb for having flouted the local customs. |
Why are you confused? Are you incapable of reading? It's been said over and over again and it's in the article. Why are you bothering to comment on things if you didn't even read the article? |
A lot of those people went to jail. They expected to - it's the price of civil disobedience. This woman went to an Islamic country and wore a shirt that she knew wold inflame many of the people who saw it. Either she did it to be deliberately provocative and further the cause of human rights, in which case she expected to be jailed, and a 30 month sentence isn't a surprise. Or she thought it was a funny joke, haha, and is a complete idiot. Either way, there are many real injustices in the world that deserve more attention than this. |
