Once again the Times promotes a false narrative with a FAKE story about an Indian suddenly concerned about his safety in America and racism.
He comes from a country that is far less safe and far more intolerant of other religions than you will find here.....but wants us to believe that it is less safe here.....why? Because Trump has been elected.
The TDS is rampant on the left. Its one of the better reasons I voted for the man. He has single handedly exposed the liars on the left and the FAKE media who are no longer attempting to feign objectivity or honesty.
I shaved my beard after the Kansas shooting to avoid appearing Muslim. These are the shameful realities of our time
.....
It wasn’t Islamic terrorism as much as*the treatment of brown-skinned people that caused my family concern. My Hindu parents were afraid I’d be mistaken for a Muslim.*
Gosh, ask Muslim Pakistani's how they have been treated by the Hindus. Dumb.
That’s when the comment came. Its source was a tattooed man in shorts. He may have had only half his teeth, but I could be wrong. “[Damn]*9/11 people —what are we doing allowing them in the bar?” he spat out, using an expletive unfit for publication. His friends laughed. My friends were horrified. “Let’s leave,” someone said. “We are so sorry,” another remarked. “Naah. Let’s stay,” I said. “He’s entitled to an opinion. It’s not like he will shoot me.”
Yep; only in America will you find some dumb redneck saying really dumb things. Wrong!
Last week, some maniac in Olathe, the place I was supposed to start my career, killed an Indian thinking he was Middle Eastern.*The president of America finally deigned to condemn the incident. In India, we are all pretty shaken. Our worst fears — about our brownness being a liability — have been realized.
A few days ago, I took an international flight. The morning of my journey, I did something I had promised myself I’d never do: I shaved my beard so I wouldn’t be mistaken for a Muslim. I felt like a coward, but I shaved.
I yearn for an era when I thought racism meant someone asking me if I was good at fixing computers because I was Indian. I yearn for a time when victims of racist comments had the confidence to linger in bars because they were sure no one would shoot them.
My response; who is stopping you from moving back to India if things are so terrible here? What is keeping you from going to Canada, or England or better yet, Germany???
Don't let the door hit your dumb arse on the way out!
