Source. People who attack teenage women for wearing hijab are racists, QED.

It is a slaughter and not just a political dispute.

"The scraps of narcissism, the rotten remnants of conspiracy theories, the offal of sour grievance, the half-eaten bits of resentment flow by. They do not cohere. But they move in the same, insistent current of self, self, self."

Wouldn’t that be Islamophobia? Since non-Arabs can be Muslims, and if it’s because they’re wearing a headscarf...

TW: the source autoplays the attack footage. Can't see how graphic it is.

Race refers to the color of someone's skin or other physical characteristics. Being Muslim does not affect that. This is religious discrimination.
People should have the right to display their opinions about whatever they want - even if it is a 'Hatred' against a religion. Violence, however, should not be tolerated. Speak as much as you want. Hold rallies. Sign petitions. Start a book club. However, the act of acting violently to an individual who was posing no obvious threat, should be- and IS - ILLEGAL.

Of course there's that one guy who thinks mob violence over a damn choice of clothing is acceptable. We can't live and let live, can we? Everyone else deserves their freedom but god forbid the brown people get left alone and aren't victims of violence. No, they just had to give a big thumbs up to a teenage girl being viciously attacked by a gang of punks.

I guarantee you also that this would never happen in my area. We have guys with similar beliefs to the thugs responsible for this but they know if they were to do something like this, they wouldn't make it out of that street in one piece. People here would probably have a full blown riot if this happened, so I'm glad no one was dumb enough to try

And then one day you look in the mirror and you realize that you ain't you anymore. You're just another monster, and thanks to your actions, someone else will eventually become as warped and twisted as you. Never forget that the best of us are just the best of a bad lot.

Japanese people range in skin tone from pale ivory to olive colored. They indeed have a skin tone akin to Europeans

Are you in Turkey by any chance, cause that's the place known for being even more racist than all of American history combined
