A true story of standing up for something you believe in. 14 year old Malala Yousufzai was attacked by members of the Taliban after standing up for women's rights in Pakistan. She spoke out promoting women's rights and education. She was shot in the head and transported to a hospital in England that was well equipped for such an injury. However the Taliban is still out to get Malala and vowed to 'finish the job' because of her radical western thinking.
Rallies have even taken place for people in support of Malala. Tens of thousands of people gathered in the streets to show their support, organized by a political party who is calling her the "daughter of the nation".
I think it's amusing that a group of probably 40-something + year old men are afraid of a 14 year old girl whose only weapon is her words.
