Update(Video of Demonstration)
There have been some claims circulating around the internet that the photos that came out of that demonstration were photo shopped. As you can see from the video, that claim is false. You can clearly see signs in Arabic as well as English in the Video and some of the same signs and people from the photos.
The Media guy for buzzfeed, or somebody enhanced(enlarged) the photos, and that made artifact appear..which led some to claim they were photo shop images.

Thank you Libyan people for speaking out against the violence and showing your support.

MSNBC has reported that the demonstrations happened. I am not surprised at that.

Well, if they're genuine they should have no objection to the thugs being dealt with appropriately.

Yeah, well there's way too much 'apologizing' and not enough killing thugs.
