Having openly naked hatred for the state of Tennessee carries with it certain responsibilities

One of these is that when its residents show signs of actually being peaceloving, caring and kind, you must also acknowledge this.

Per Think Progress:

Since the hate crime at Al-Farooq, however, there has been “outpouring of neighborly support” for the mosque, with neighbors helping to clean up the graffiti. “It made me sick to my stomach, because I don’t expect this in Nashville,” said resident John Tighe. At least 150 people — “including spiritual leaders from several faiths” — also went to an open house at the Islamic Center of Nashville on Saturday to learn more about the Islamic faith and pledge “support for local Muslims in the wake of last week’s defacement” of Al-Farooq.


Let it never be said that this blog was unfair.
