I’m an American and a Muslim. Today, I’m asking all Americans of every faith to join me to denounce Donald Trump’s hate speech. His plan to shut Muslims out of America has no place in our Democracy. His prejudice against Muslims is reckless, dangerous, and racist. Trump doesn’t understand what makes America great. We’re a nation of different faiths, but we share a common belief that our differences only make us better… and together, we can build a stronger America. That is the greatness of our nation. Every day, Muslims in America like myself are working hard to strengthen our communities. Muslim-Americans own businesses. We’re leaders in communities, teachers in local schools, and members of the Armed Forces. We’re fathers, mothers, sisters, and brothers… we’re your neighbours. Simply put… we’re Americans. As an American… I think that it’s time we said NO to the hate.

Trump isn’t alone. The Republican Party now trumpets hate, greed, and warmongering as its unashamed tenets. Therefore, no Orthodox Christian can have ANYTHING to do with this evil organisation. What does that tell us about Potapov, Paffhausen, Webster, Whiteford, Reardon, Dreher, Trenham, Mattingly, and all the other drooling konvertsy Republicans? What shall they choose? Christ or Ted Cruz? The Church or Marco Rubio? Christ’s Love or Abbot’s Death Penalty Spike?
Yes… what shall they choose? Their eternal destiny DOES depend on their choice…

Injustice is injustice… no matter who it happens to… no matter where it happens… no matter when it happens. Full stop. This Leftist would like to know why Liberals can’t get that…. “Black n’ yellow, red n’ white, all are precious in His sight”… do you misunderstand that? “Black Lives Matter” is a Liberal tool used to break people apart. Trust me, the Affluent Effluent don’t have such divisions… they know that having money gives them a common goal and agenda. We should likewise have a common goal and agenda, and not be spooked by media or One Percenter fantasies. A moment’s sober reflection tells us that some things are just wedges used by the ruling class to divide us. Black Lives Matter is one such. ALL LIVES MATTER. ALL OF THEM. Not all powerless people are black… some of the moneyed oppressors are black (they use “minority set-asides” to feather their already-plush nests).
I stand with the oppressed… ALL of them. I’m not alone…
