Oh yeah murder suicide although similar is quite different in my mind and the number murdered at least should be included with gun deaths.

Asked about a report from the Southern Poverty Law Center detailing a dramatic spike in anti-Muslim hate groups in America, White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Tuesday spent most of his answer talking about terrorism committed by Muslims.

Be reasonable. The Bannon/Trump Admin. builds fear as a unifying element by stirring up hatred & xenophobia toward Muslims & Hispanics. You know, like Hitler & the European Jewish population.

You can’t expect Bannon/Trump to criticize anti-Muslim bigotry and hatred…
When they’re in the BUSINESS of stirring up anti-Muslim bigotry and hatred.

That’s the only way it ever happens with him.

A little OT, but… that Jewish cemetery that was desecrated recently? The one Josh wrote about yesterday, where his mom is buried?

American Muslims (and maybe some abroad) have raised over $25K so far to help repair it.

Actually, that number is out of date. As of this writing it stands at almost $52,000. They met their original $20K goal in three hours. They are still accepting funds and will use excess funds to help with other vandalized Jewish centers nationwide.

Update 21:50 PST – $53,970. And still going. In less than eight hours. 26 days left in the campaign.

Um, Sean? Got a message for you and your boss.

Edits: grammar, punctuation, minor wording changes.

And the Press never asks about this, when Spicer runs his “The President wants to make America safe for all Americans” line.
