Muslim women learn to protect themselves in Trump's America

[lucas80]

Unfortunate story from NPR on Friday about the rise in attacks against Muslim's in America. Attacking any Muslim because of their religion is wrong, but are seeing the rise of the "tough guy", attacks against women.
Besides physical means of self defense, should these women be guided to handguns for defense? It is their right as an American.

They should pack heat.

How long have you guys ignored the violence against women in the Islamic world and defended Islam as the religion of peace? Now you're concerned AND advocate carrying weapons? You blame Trump when Obama has turned a blind eye for seven years?

Seriously. What is wrong with you?

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

How long have you guys ignored the violence against women in the Islamic world...?

Never.

What's your point?

This is a stupid story. Non-Muslim women get harassed on the street and take self-defense classes, too.

NPR is ramping up the hysteria just as much as everybody else.

How long have 'we ignored' it? As long as your side I suppose. It isn't even a concern of mine really, and maybe would be more of a concern for your types who want to spread your variety of freedom by bombs across the region.

I haven't defended any religion as a religion of peace.

OP asking a question isn't advocating.

Trump has some high coverage xenophobia currently.

WTF is wrong with you.

Hysterical over hysteria. PC about being PC.

Did you actually read the article? Please point out the examples I gives of an attack on Muslim woman. Also, feel free to read the complaints on the link embedded in the story and point out the "tough guy" attacks on women. The verbal harassment and vandalism is wrong but your childish hyperbole does nothing to help their plight.

The left doesn't do any fear mongering? Never plays down any stories that don't jibe with their narrative? never tries to manipulate events to push their narrative?

Well if the left does it too then by all means we should just be totally stoked that it is the status quo.

No....it means we should piss in the faces of both parties.........f*ck both of them.

It's crazy but here is how I see this game playing out.

The dems have decided to go bat shit bonkers crazy for Muslim love (I'm sure just as a counter for the right that has gone just the opposite) and as a result the democrats will end up driving most of their Hispanic voters over to the republicans.

Watching these culture battles play out this past year has been fascinating and the grounds of political support are going to start shifting below our feet.

The Dems have decided to fight a crusade against Islam. But they don't want to admit that's what they are doing because that would greatly increase the blowback. The GOP doesn't realize what the Dems are doing and they want to fight a crusade against Islam, too. So they are trying to goad Obama into making statements that will look like anti-Islam statements that will inflame the conflict.

I'm of the right and I'm not worried about the harassment of Muslims. Mainly because Americans are the most tolerant people in the world. Even when huge amounts of Muslims support jihad.

I worry more about the Christians being slaughtered in the Muslim world. Something that BHO has failed to mention. Even after David Cameron has addressed.

 

[swagsurfer02]

I had no idea Muslim women were being persecuted so much more in the US than the M.E.

"She signed up because she has been feeling uncomfortable wearing the hijab on the subway. People looked at her before, but she says it feels different now.

"Usually it's curiosity. But now it's a more hateful stare. And it's not a good feeling," Ahmed says."

""When I walk around, I don't put my head down to be the victim," she says. "And if I see a couple of guys, I make sure I give them the look and say, 'Yes, I know you're standing there.' "
