Police are investigating the beating of a Muslim store owner in Astoria, Queens as a police hate crime. Sarker Haque, the 53-year-old man who was hit said the attacker yelled "I kill Muslims." This is just the latest offense in growing anti-Islamic sentiment in the country. On Sunday, someone threw a pig's head against the wall at a mosque in Philadelphia.

GOP Rep: Deport Any Muslims We Can't ‘Verify’A Florida lawmaker wants to remove people with a “Middle Eastern background” from the United States. In a segment on the radio show The Palin Update, Republican Rep. Ted Yoho proposed a ban on people of Middle Eastern descent, a policy even broader than the anti-Muslim immigration plan suggested yesterday by presidential candidate Donald Trump."The people that are here that shouldn’t be here, we need to have a way of vetting and screening them,” Yoho said. “If they have a Middle Eastern background that we can’t verify, they need to be out of the country.”

Pretty awful. By attacking innocent muslims ISIS wins, because they recruit people who are discriminated and isolated from western nations
