A non-partisan message in support of religious tolerance

*joins meme* eta: note: I did not write the following, I'm merely copy pasta-ing

While it hasn't been reported widely in the national news, an act of domestic terrorism was committed in the United States on Friday. A "chemical irritant" was sprayed through the window of a mosque in Dayton, Ohio, into the area where children and infants were being taken care of while their parents prayed. The story is here.

Right now, there are no suspects, so it is impossible to know the motivation for this vile and cowardly act. However, it may be significant that an organization called the Clarion Fund distributed an anti-Muslim documentary throughout swing states in the past two weeks. Ohio was one of the states where the disc was inserted as an advertisement in many newspapers.

Many Americans who happen to be Muslims are feeling very much under attack at the moment. The near total silence of the national media on this incident is not helping. If you were an American Muslim, wouldn't you feel that this country doesn't care about terrorism if it is against your people?

If you support the right of everyone to peacefully worship as they believe, whether or not they believe as you do, please post this in your journal:

please don't speak, you'll only lie...

1. My family doesn't appreciate politically-charged emails, apparently. Given that they spam me with pro-life and pro-christian bullshit propaganda.... possibly, I have offended their sensibilities Either that, or they don't care enough to email me back.

2. Wall Street threw a temper tantrum after not getting their ice cream today.

3. My action figures are still having sex in front of my computer tower. Sadly, Kara is not as limber as she could be.

4. *gets distracted by roommates*

5. Quin has resigned herself to getting brushed every so often by me now. She.... is not pleased if I have to tug hard, though.

6. I need to write a Kitty/Pete manifesto, or something. Do I have old fic I haven't finished? (other than The Slayer, the Cat and Some Wisdom). Hrm. Also, Kitty/Pete was the first smut I ever wrote.

7.--now I'm distracted. I should also write some Domino fic (BTW THERE WAS A DOMINO SECRET ON F!S THE OTHER DAY. Did someone turn the A/C on in hell?)
