Of course there is a grey area where people cannot avoid seeing certain things which can be expressed in public. They might have to see the march if they work in the vicinity but then people who are offended by hijabs have to see them too. The point is no individual is targeted.

People have complained of having to see anything from adverts with slim, semi-clad models on them to churches when they leave their house. You just have to deal with this, really. They may symbolise things you are morally opposed to but you can say so in public spaces too.
