It makes me angry that people will attack or kill other people just because they have a different religion, race or sexuality. When will people learn that it is okay to be different. I can see how Trump's words give some people the idea that this is okay. Trump is part of the problem and not a part of the answer.

I'm not all that concerned with these incidents.  No, they're not fair.  And yes, they should be punished and controlled.  But I also don't really care.  These are a drop in the bucket and most people go about their lives without meaningful harassment.  And I'm never going to tell people not to be furious when Islamic terrorism kills Americans.  Islam is complicit with that.  Many Muslims harbor those feelings even if they don't fully support them.  And way too few Muslims speak or work to stamp out Islamic terrorism, here or abroad.  We are all fighting wars whether we recognize it or not.  There is no "us"; that is a false notion.  There will always be you and me, and right now Islam is a "you."

You know with all of the issues recently within the country i had not even though about how bad it must been for Muslims living in america. When there is such a culture of racism and rudeness and hate being spewed left and right they are bound to be feeling it terribly. The fact that the number is rising this high is incredibly alarming and that people are only seeing race is awful.

i cant believe stuff like this is going on. I mean you would think our society would be better by now. I feel like we as a society are getting worse in some ways, although in others we are improving, but still. What can be done? How can we improve? This is just par for the course at this point. I'm not even sure what to say about it.

I think its wrong for people to be attacked just because of a select few that make a religion look bad. There are also some bad christians out there and we dont base our whole view on things based on the fact that they were christian. We must learn to differentiate between the two to be honest it makes the most sense.
