On Friday, bloggers, activists, and ordinary people took to the streets of D.C. to take a stand for free speech, civil society, and moral clarity. Word on the street is that was a great event. People of all political stripes stood with Denmark in solidarity, and gave a resounding "not this time," to those who would put forth the idea that it's okay to silence free speech with violence and terror, lest we offend, and those too foolish or cowardly to call that idea what it is. Chris Hitchens was there, and gave a speech.
Hat tip: Andrew Sullivan
Oh, and there was a rally in New York just yesterday.
