That hand over the mouth concept has already been done by Brad Holland except he uses a gag instead. You can find the poster on the Social Design Zine blog entry also dealing with the green movement in Iran.

One of my students came up with the same concept as well. I am sure it has been done many times.
I still like both versions though...
