Virginia Mosque Meeting Gets Ugly: ‘Every One of You Are Terrorists!’
Source: Mediaite
A presentation on plans for a new mosque near Fredericksburg, VA ended with a volley of racist rants made by members of the public.
According to WUSA 9, speaker Samer Shalaby was presenting plans for a new mosque the local Muslim community intended to build on property it already owned. The current Islamic Center is too small, as the community has grown steadily in recent years.
Thats when two men in attendance at the public meeting shouted down Shalaby with claims that all Muslims were evil and terrorists. The speaker said he didnt expect such hostility.
<...>
The first man to make a scene called what Shalaby and local Muslims were doing evil, which attracted some positive attention from the crowd. Thats when the second man came forward.
Ill do everything in my power to make sure that does not happen. We dont want it because you are terrorists. Every one of you are terrorists. I dont care what you say, he said. You can smile at me. You can say whatever you want, but every Muslim is a terrorist.

This is an issue that is destroying our country and the First Amendment.

Change seems so far away that it all seems so hopeless sometimes.
