Yes everyone stereotypes everyone else. You’re fat you must be lazy. You’re too skinny you must be shallow. You talk slow you must be dumb. And of course if you’re of Middle Eastern descent you must be Muslim. Maybe if people actually talked to others outside their clique or educated themselves there would be less stupidity – PB/TK
‘Funny thing is, I’m not Muslim’: Iran refugee responds to hate messages in his home – BY KATE IRBY 3/30/17
Hasel Afshar said he came home on Tuesday after a long weekend away to find his chairs and couches slashed, doors smashed and – the worst part – hateful messages scrawled across his walls and furniture.
“I was scared when I see this stuff,” Afshar, who lives near Portland, Oregon, told KPTV. “Really scared.”
The word “terrorist” was written in red spray paint on his kitchen cabinets, “Muslim” on his walls, “get out” in his shower and “die” on his mirror. Other messages included “kill you,” “hate,” “you lose,” and “get out of U.S., you will die here.”
