quote [ Saturday's nationwide "March Against Sharia," sponsored by a group known for aggressively criticizing Islam, has in recent days become a rallying cause for right-wing extremists. ]
Basically it's a nationwide klan rally without the hoods.

Signal to noise ratio is pretty low here, but when you skip the overwrought invective and red herrings, you seem to be asking:
“Why do people attend rallies against Sharia; Something that is practiced thousands of miles, oceans, and continents away from their home?”
I would suggest the answer is obvious and twofold.
Seems to me protests about human rights abuses needn’t be as parochial as you seem to believe. Tossing gays off tall buildings for Allah (PBUH) is unseemly, even if it’s not happening in your own back yard. But then that’s pretty fucking obvious, so let’s skip that vapid comment and move on…
Point number two – is just plain ignorant. Sharia is endorsed and practiced in the United States. Pious Muslims frequently perpetrate honour killings, sexual mutilation of children, and the murder of homosexuals in the name of Islamic law. There are ample headlines on this site to stand testament to this simple statement of fact. In recent times, I would be inclined to point you in the direction of the charnel house that was the Pulse nightclub and/or the FGM practitioners in Detroit who are cutting up the little girls - They’re actually arguing they are being persecuted by practicing their religion. That will be Sharia.
So, it is happening abroad, it’s happening right at home, and people are protesting against it.
Its incredibly revealing that pisses you off.
