And people said, well, that's a thing of the past.
Well, guess what?
We see many semblances, many acts that are carried out with the same vitriol that was generated by the Ku Klux Klan.
We have people standing in front of our mosques that belong to right-wing hate militias carrying AR-15s, talking about wanting to inflict harm on Muslims.
I have been to Christchurch, New Zealand, and buried the victims of a white supremacist terrorist who was inspired by the political rhetoric here in the United States, in his own words, in his manifesto, to go and kill 50 innocent people in Christchurch, New Zealand, one of the most peaceful cities in the world.
And by the way, Lex, I mean, it's really interesting, like with Christchurch, you know, the man wanted, and I won't even say his name, but his next target after the two mosques, had he not been stopped, was to go to a Muslim daycare.
So what drives someone to dehumanize people to that extent that he was willing to go to a daycare and murder a bunch of kids because he saw them as a demographic threat to civilization?
So Muslims are terrorized because they are falsely depicted as terrorists.
Muslims suffer domestically and globally because of this false association.
It's a lazy association.
And when someone comes around and says, well, fine, not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.
I say that you clearly don't read statistics.
Whether we're talking about the 20th century, and I'm a student of history, and I believe you are as well, all the isms, World War I, World War II had nothing to do with religion, certainly had nothing to do with Islam, fascism, Soviet atheism, right?
Many of these systems where people were murdered in the millions, Nazism, the Holocaust, Rwanda, Cambodia, I can go on and on.
The Rohingya today, the greatest atrocity towards the Uyghurs,
Where does Islam fit in all of this?
People do horrible things.
They stamp it with religion at times.
But the only group of people that seem to suffer after an act of violence is committed are Muslims.
Because any act of violence that is committed by a Muslim will immediately be blamed on Islam.
