DC Tom Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Quote [...] Whereas white supremacists in the United States have exploited and continue to exploit bigotry and weaponized hate for political gain, targeting traditionally persecuted peoples, including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and other people of color, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, the LGBTQ community, immigrants, and others with verbal attacks, incitement, and violence; [...] What a courageous stand by House Democrats, condemning attacks by white supremacists on Pacific Islanders in the wake of Omar's antisemitism.

keepthefaith Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) 48 minutes ago, The_Dude said: Muslims cannot. Not sure why some of y’all don’t believe me. It depends. Muslims are like Christians and Jews in that people practice their religions to varying degrees. I have known plenty of Christian's over the years who are lousy Christian's meaning they don't behave in a manner respectful to those values and don't actually practice the religion. I know others that are very true to their Christian faith in every facet of their lives and seek every hour of every day to be true to those values. I have a Muslim friend who lives on Long Island whom I've known for 25 years. He's got a giant personality, he's got 3 kids, is divorced, has had several girlfriends in recent years, drinks, swears, runs a good business, drives flashy cars, dresses very well, treats women well including his ex, watches sports, is fun to be around and prays several times a day. He was not born in the U.S. and came here for college. He also loathes the religious conflict around the world and thinks that many of his "people" are nuts. Great guy, met him doing business together and I wish we could spend more time with each other. One night in the late 90's he wanted to take me to the top of the World Trade Center for dinner but I didn't have the required jacket to enter the restaurant. He drove me to his house from his office, grabbed a blue blazer from his closet for me and off we went. His business partners and several employees are Muslims and they are all like him. Great people, smart and fun and not wrapped up in all the hate but are probably criticized by some other Muslims as not being very true to their faith. They have embraced American culture and still find room to practice their faith. Omar and Tlaib are different.

The issue is the fundamentalists. The fundamentalists, while typically minorities, always take over and run the ship. That’s my issues with Muslims. The moderates always shut up and go the course of the fundamentalists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omar says the “hope and change” offered by Barack Obama was a mirage. Recalling the “caging of kids” at the U.S.-Mexico border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch, she argues that the Democratic president operated within the same fundamentally broken framework as his Republican successor.
