This is Hatred–Shameful, Disgraceful, Unnerving, Frightening, Racist, Xenophobic, Islamophobic Hatred

Posted on March 4, 2011 by Richard Jeffrey Newman

Apologies for posting twice in such quick succession, but I saw this video on Facebook and I just had to post it. It speaks for itself, though I especially appreciated the woman who calls out, “One nation under God, not Allah!”

    There is something very, very wrong with some people. And I wonder, if they saw this video, what they would make of themselves. Would they still be proud?

    The screaming protesters were appalling, but in a lot of ways, the politicians with their measured “rational” statements were even worse.

    I guess hating the Jews for killing Christ is passe now. Hip Christianist bigots go after Muslims!

    Richard, you should put a trigger warning above the video.

    This protest happened in the town where I grew up. That place is just fucking horrible. There’s not a single thing to recommend it.

    ETA: Also one of the hubs of the Prop 8 campaign, if I remember correctly.
