The anti-US protests have spread to Belgium as hundreds of Muslims protested in the city square of Antwerp over the weekend.

The protesters yelled out anti-US slogans and carried black flags, which are synonymous with the radical Salafist movement, the group that wants sharia law implemented throughout the entire world.

When police went to break up the demonstration, chaos ensued. Protesters began to fight with police. The police responded by arresting 120 people.

Could you imagine the outcry if Christians, Jews and people of other religions murdered Muslims who criticized their religions? We'd be called barbaric.
