/// More than 800 women living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, are also planning to protest in solidarity with American women, against Donald Trump’s election as president. ///

Perhaps they would be better employed protesting for women's rights in their own country?

And why aren't our own women, protesting against other more dangerous world leaders, than Donald Trump could ever be?

[vortex]

AOG,I had in mind the other part of your original question:

"And why aren't our own women, protesting against other more dangerous world leaders".

They are more likely to protest about DT than the leader of N.Korea.

Of course,DT is not a madman sadistic dictator but he remains deeply unpopular.

Totally agree aog that they should be protesting for women's rights in their own country ...

[Zacs-Master]

In their own country? As far as I can see, all the women are in their own countries.

[vortex]

Herelam,we don't know how many of those 800 living in Saudi are actively protesting about women's rights in their own land but we cannot say that they are not actively doing so.

As I have shown,there is a quota of women protesting there and it is to be hoped that the number will increase significantly.

Only deeply unpopular to his opponents, just the same as those protesting because they lost the EU referendum.

And they class the Far-Right protests as Fascist, Neo Nazi etc.

Perhaps the Far-Right groups should turn out in force so as to oppose this anti-democracy march?

[vortex]

AOG,maybe they will,both protests would be perfectly legitimate.

[Zacs-Master]

Protesting against one democratic leader does not make the march anti-democratic. It just demonstrates their wishes that another democratic leader be chosen, or that the one they are protesting against be more democratic towards them.
The very fact that they are allowed to protest is, in itself, democracy in action.

[anotheoldgit]

/// Although the organisers of the London march have not been specific about which freedoms are under threat, the Washington march has made clear its commitment to a pro-abortion agenda, expelling one feminist group from the march for its pro-life stance. ///

Only join our protest if you agree with our particular issues, now there's democracy for you.

[vortex]

The pro-life group can still protest though in it's own right.

/// AOG,maybe they will,both protests would be perfectly legitimate. ///

Some are deemed more legitimate than others, it would seem.

You are mixing up the name of one US political party, to the real meaning of democracy.

Protesting against a democratic vote result by a county's people is showing disregard towards a democratic procedure.

[vortex]

AOG,some marches are more prone to trouble.Again,from your link:

"Ch Supt Peter Terry, the force's gold commander for the planned march, said: "We have made this decision based on specific intelligence"

[anotheoldgit]

These women and those who choose to join them don't really know what they are protesting about, they just want a mob of followers to cause complete disruption in our capital.

Now where are those water cannons?

[anotheoldgit]

vortex

Yes always ready and willing to toe the PC line.

Pardon the pun.

[vortex]

AOG,protestors in any action form all shapes,sizes and intellect.Some are more unruly than others such as the EDL.

Who is going to ignore specific intelligence too?

[Zacs-Master]

'Protesting against a democratic vote result by a county's people is showing disregard towards a democratic procedure'

I disagree vehemently. The banning of such protests would be against every notion of democracy. Is that what you're suggesting?

[anotheoldgit]

vortex.

/// Some are more unruly than others such as the EDL. ///

I see you were careful not to mention the Socialist Workers Party, Unite against Fascism, Anti-Nazi League and Black Lives Matter.

[Zacs-Master]

Would you like protests to be banned AOG?

[vortex]

It seemed relevant to select the group in your link AOG.In your example,there ia intelligence to suggest trouble.Sensible to pre-empt disorder where it is likely?

Women aren't allowed out unaccompanied by a male relative in Saudi so there will be piles of men marching.Women have no rights in Saudi and other Islamic countries. A woman was recently beheaded in the street in Saudi by the religious police for being out unaccompanied by a male relative.It Is a barbaric place with an appalling human rights record against men and women.
