(100,038 posts)The scary thing is that the racists stayed in the closet until Trump came along, and made the racists think it's OK to be open about their racism. The more these assholes are exposed, the better it is for us. I hope.

(3,587 posts)9 or so color printed pages of Hate put on my windshield because I have the audacity to want all people to coexist (Yes, I have that COEXIST sticker on my car, which now apparently makes me a target).
It made me so angry.... I didn't even look at it after I read this far: YOU CAN'T COEXIST WITH PEOPLE THAT WANT TO KILL YOU.
I read that and then ripped the rest of it up and threw it away without even reading it.
I interact with Muslims throughout my day. A couple co-workers, one who I would even call my friend. She is one of the sweetest people in the office. Then there are other businesses like the gas station, or restaurants where I interact with all kinds of people, and I'm sure many are Muslim, Christian, Atheists, Seiks, Buddhists.... Not once in my life has any one of them ever given me even the inkling that they wanted to kill me. Well maybe some of these crazy right wing 'so-called' christians. They do scare me.
I'm actually more afraid of whoever put that filth on my car. Will my tires be slashed when I get to it after work today?
I refuse to remove my sticker. I believe in that sentiment even stronger now.

(12,448 posts)U of MD is my alma mater. I have to say I never saw anything like this when I was there, but that was way before a so-called president of the U.S. gave permission to say things in public that used to be (mostly) considered horrible. At least the university is investigating this trash.

These creeps are like cockroaches and are mentally defective.
