Discussion: #IllWalkWithYou: People Offer To Walk Muslims To Mosques After Imam Killed

Eventhough it was an awful that people died just practicing their religion. It is good to hear that many people want Muslims to feel safe in this country

The news available on the internet this AM says the NYPD was able to track a suspect seen on surveillance video committing the shooting and then jumping into his vehicle. They detained him last night but not charged yet.

Things like this restore the faith in humanity that the orange asshole and his supporters took away.

While it remains to be seen what the exact actual motivation was -
One can anticipate that the right wing religious bigots are already yacking it up & crafting their insinuations that simply by being Muslim - the Imam must have been up to no good - and then effectively issuing a note of praise for these murders as a case of 2nd amendment solution to ā€œthe Muslim problemā€.

Good to see, but you canā€™t get much more un-American than offering to do physical activity. After all, ā€œthoughts and prayersā€ donā€™t require any.

No noā€¦it will be ā€˜I bet you wonā€™t walk with the police!!! Hateful libtards just wanna support criminals like Muslims and blacksā€™ā€¦and on and on and on to confirm the victimization of white Christian peopleā€¦

I take your cynicism, but prayer works by moving/encouraging one to then take action. Walking alongside a Muslim, in support of them, may require some courage, if it turns out this shooting was a hate crime.

Iā€™m going to see if thereā€™s a way I can do this.

I reside in Queens where there are census tracts that are the most diverse in the nation. Itā€™s good to see this in Ozone Park particularly. A place where Gotti once held fort in his social club. Thankfully itā€™s a lot better there since he left this earth.
