[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Muslim here - sorry you were offended by people celebrating, us normal ones were too. But we had no control over them. And let's be real us normal ones weren't going to speak out - bc we were not trying to draw the attention of white folks who suddenly saw ALL of us at the enemy. Frankly we were just trying to get thru the day to day of having people glare at us when we had to go to the grocery store or when we were at the dr's office and the nurse calls out Mohammed and that's you and now everyone is watching you walk in wondering if you're a terrorist.

If I'm being even more real most of us were trying to keep our heads down and hold onto our jobs and not get race discriminated out as the economy got shaky then too - at least in my industry in finance.[/quote]

Celebrating the death of my uncle who was murdered in 9/11 is sick. [/quote]

PP here - excuse me? Did I say I was celebrating? Did I say I was supporting those who celebrated? You're just salty bc Muslims weren't "speaking out" - guess what we were trying to go about our normal lives and jobs while YOU all kept glaring at us and spitting at us. Sorry we didn't then feel like stopping and apologizing to you for something that WE PERSONALLY DID NOT DO. I was no where near the airports, nor those planes, nor knew the people who did the attacks, nor how they planned or funded the attacks; nor was a family member or confidante or any of those attackers who could've tipped off the authorities. I legit heard about it on NBC just like you did.

And keep in mind this was 2001 - pre social media - so it wasn't as easy to jump on LinkedIn or Twitter or Facebook and denounce whatever you wanted to denounce to prove you were one of the "good American Muslims." In order to denounce, you had to be important enough that the local ABC station or newspaper would cover what you say. Look back, there ARE mosques and Muslim organizations that did that - tons of them.[/quote]
