Is It Me, Or Has The Western World Gone Nuts?

Consider The Slut Walk.  It's a parade, a demonstration, if you will, of women parading in sexually provocative dress.  The idea, if I understand it correctly, is that what a woman looks like should make no difference in how men, and, perhaps, people in general, respond to a woman's dress.  It should most certainly give men no idea that it's okay to rape them.

But, it also seems like people demonstrating for one cause often feel strongly about other causes.  Women who demonstrate for Black Lives Matter will often demonstrate against homophobia, or Islamophobia.  And, women, who are found to be on a Slut Walk, may have a love for Israel.

But, here's what happened in Chicago on a Slut Walk.  Women were told they could not carry LGBT flags with a Star of David superimposed on it.  And, why not?  Because, they were told that Israel was a nation that Slut Walkers hated.  It was a country that mistreated Muslims in general and Palestinians in particular.

Really?  One is tempted to wish that such misguided demonstrators try organizing a Slut Walk in Pakistan, or Saudi Arabia, or Iran, or Jordan, or Indonesia, or the west bank, or any Muslim country.  It must be troubling to such Jew-haters that Israel is to be found among the nations that actually hold their own (believe it or not) Slut Walks.
