[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a fear that Muslims and Jews have had over their places of worship, for a long time. Many mosques and synagogues are no stranger to vandalism, or destruction of their houses of worship, and many, many threats.

I am not "happy" about any senseless violence, but it is interesting to hear Christians (particularly white Christians) talk about a feeling of fear - that is unfortunately so common and has been long standing for other groups in their houses of solace.[/quote]

“It is interesting”? What on earth do you mean by that?[/quote]

I mean just that. Minorities have felt this fear in their places of worship for a long time, and had a heightened sense of awareness of their vulnerable position -- even in "safe" places - that it's odd to be reminded that this fear is new and unusual for others. [/quote]

Translation: we’ve had it rough so it’s funny that now you are too.

What is wrong with you?[/quote]
DP.. "it's funny" in a sad way. The double standard continues... that's all.  But it is true.  Minorities in this country have been experiencing this kind of thing for decades.[/quote]

26 people have been killed.

You: "I hate Christians so much that I will immediately go onto DCUM to gloat about some Christians feeling scared."

What's wrong with you?[/quote]
