I do hope
after the last few weeks,
my Muslim friends realize that Islamophobic bigots are a minority – albeit a very vocal and aggressive minority – and that most of us not only welcome you (and your food please) into our communities but if it ever got to the point of national registration, ID badges, rounding you up, and denying you access we’d pour into the streets in solidarity and fight this tyranny.
So if you feel threatened or afraid, please reach out to us because we want to help. If they attack your mosques, know you are still welcome to worship in our communities.
Whatever these idiots do to you, we are here standing beside you. You have allies. This is the United States of America and regardless of what some tiny group of morons say, you are part of the beautiful and diverse fabric of our society and we are glad you are here (with your food).
Now one of you open a goddamn falafel cart in my town already, this is getting absurd.
