What if any of that happened? What if you acknowledged exactly what she said, which is “Salam, I come in peace.”
I'm not really sure who you're defending here. It happened and it's one of the most reasonable evictions I've heard of. There have been plenty of more unjust removals of protesters than this.
Perhaps you don't understand this. The entire crowd turned on her while she was standing by herself. She did NOT make a spectacle other than to just be there. She wasn't standing in front of anyone or 'protesting' insofar as just being there.
It's an article with an event that I considered worthy of talking about. If we only judged what was worth talking about by only the most important things in the world nobody would ever complain about their shitty morning coffee.
Its called freedom of speech, which applies to everyone right or wrong. Thats why the KKK is allowed to protest in front of government buildings. It applies to everyone, not just people that happen to agree with you.
Did somebody mention racism? It is certainly xenophobia and stereotyping. The problem is that it doesn't go against your 'theology'. Quite a bit of shit isn't a crime, including shitting in the stall outside of the toilet.
I understand you're talking about it and find the discussion interesting, I'm just pointing out that you've used the word "defend" inaccurately....and you may be a victim of media bias skewing your perception of events.
This works both ways. Others have freedom to call you an asshole. Enjoy the high-level discourse.
Or perhaps you're looking at the term 'defend' incorrectly. I fail to understand how this is confusing. I find the level of discourse disgusting and said so. This has nothing to do with media anything, this has to do with my personal belief how people should be treated.
They absolutely do. Whats your point? Im not the one trying to push my morality on others like yourself.
Maybe you're right and I don't understand the concept "to defend," well who are you "defending" then?
Did you just invent a talking point? How EXACTLY are you being pushed into anything? You are stating you viewpoint and I am stating mine. I can see by your morals you could give one shit about whether someone is called a terrorist or is evicted for being different than everybody else in a crowd. Nobody is pushing you into jack shit. I'm the guy who would prevent people from jumping the KKK at a rally, that's the difference between us. I wouldn't be the one saying they brought it on themselves.
There is a video. I see us normalizing xenophobia more and more every day. I just don't like it. This isn't about muslims, this is about who we are as Americans.
Yet you are saying that the people were wrong, something i havent said at all. I actually said good for her for doing what she did, but what did she expect to happen? Calling someone wrong for believing differently is pushing your morality on others.
This was about muslims or her response wouldnt have been to show people what a peaceful MUSLIM looks like. She could have just said a peacefull person but she had to differentiate herself.
How so? I can't follow that train of thought. Calling someone wrong is 'pushing' something? At what level is something right or wrong to you? Does it require a death or is everything okie-dokie as long as someone believes something different than you? Are muslim beliefs ok with you or can you call them wrong?
I'm not talking about her, I'm talking about me.
Well I do agree with you in a sense but it's not just Muslims, it's pretty much everyone that has been pigeonholed into a certain type and that certainly does make sober discourse a challenge. So how many people were shouting xenophobic insults at her?
Who called her a terrorist and said "you got a bomb"? One random hick in the crowd? It sucks, but people say shitty things all the time and the person who said that was a fellow spectator who has no association with Trump and the people putting off the event, other than being a supporter.
Don't really know, that part was media fodder. It was just reported that it happened.
I'm not sure I didn't count, but I'm also sure that the guy shouting 'white power' in another one of his rallies wasn't associated either. The crowd that didn't say anything about it wasn't associated either. It's all just ok. I'm sure it would be at a Hillary rally too, nobody on the right would say anything.
Yea, having a shirt that says 'I come in peace' is real dirtbag shit.
Nope, he just wants all muslims to foot the bill. THAT'S the problem.
Be serious.. The 'some of them are good people', bagging pants black man tweeting, ban all muslims who have jack shit to do with any of this guy?
do you have evidence that it didnt happen?
How about you look at the actual video? Perhaps instead of imagining a gathering of people sitting quietly and one person standing up causing a ruckus, you should actually imagine what a rally looks like. It was a bunch of people screaming and standing.
so do you have evidence or not?
