hey, muslim friends, be safe april 3
I don’t want to spread the hateful original post, because they should not get publicity, and I worry that spreading the original post will increase the exposure of the “challenge” and put more people at risk. But suffice it to say that there is a list going around of hate crimes that people plan to perpetrate on Muslims on April 3. The original post is specific to the United Kingdom, but given how the internet works, it seems likely that it could spread.
Muslims, be extra careful on April 3. Travel in groups, limit going outside if you have to, and be especially suspicious of people you don’t know or people you do know who are islamophobic. Some of the threats are of acid attacks and torture, as well as mosque burnings and bombings. I hate to say that you should limit your activities because of terrorist threats, But this seems like an instance where you should put your safety first.
Do what you have to do to stay safe, loves, and I’m so sorry callous, racist, islamophobic terrorists exist.
