ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ URGES SUPPORT FOR MUSLIM COMMUNITY FOLLOWING NEW ZEALAND MOSQUE ATTACKS
Newsweek ^ | 03-15-19 | ALEXANDRA HUTZLER

Posted on 03/15/2019 8:48:39 AM PDT by Steve1999

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is urging support for the Muslim community following mass shootings at two New Zealand mosques on Friday that left at least 49 people dead and nearly 50 injured, saying that we must come together to “stand up for neighbors.” “This is a time of great vulnerability for our communities,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter. “We must come together, fight for each other, & stand up for neighbors. Isolation, dehumanizing stereotypes, hysterical conspiracy theories, & hatred ultimately lead to the anarchy of violence. We cannot stand for it.” In another social media post, the freshman congresswoman from New York urged people to “check in” and “perhaps extend a kind gesture at your local mosque.”

It may not be proper but I see an element of payback.

“dehumanizing stereotypes, hysterical conspiracy theories”

Yet she supported her little anti-Semitic, Somalian sidekick.

Bloviation.

Never let an insane act of evil be wasted when it can be used for political gain.

Yep. same improper feeling here.

Call me when AOC calls to support the Christian community after a church shooting.

I believe this was the actual motive for the killings....to elicit sympathy for the muslims.

Yeah, just as soon as muslims denounce their religious obligation to subjugate, convert or kill all the rest of us.

One hundred percent correct. Right from Rahm Emanuel’s playbook.

How exactly is New Zealand are neighbor? It is across the globe.

If the Islamic World is so wonderful, why are so many of its adherents emigrating rather than remaining at home closer to Mecca?

How was the New Zealand shooter linked to the NRA?

Hmmm. So will she promote the Christian/Jewish community the next time a swarm of isis or hamas slaughter a bunch of Christians or Jews? And call for more guncontrol and abolishing/outlawing the NRA in those countries where the attacks occur? What a total idiot. No offense to actual idiots intended.

There is nothing wrong with this message.
We should be standing for victims of violence, no matter what their religion, and we should be condemning the actors of violence, and any reasons they may have given for doing so.

I don’t even know yet in whose name (or what cause) this was said to have been done in yet, but don’t we always ask the muslim community to step up on condem terrorism when it’s done in their name? Aren’t we implying that it’s tacit approval when they don’t?

My one beef would be, was OAC making similar statements when christians or jews were being attacked, or was she using them as a vehicle to attack the NRA or some other political angle?

But I for one will condemn an act of terrorism against a people for their religion.

This woman has to stick her nose into everything. Not if but when they kick her out of congress I’m sure that she will be working at the fake news network. She would be perfect for them. Except that they might not look too kindly at her stealing other people’s tips.

I remember after the Paris attacks, where Muslims slaughtered 130 innocent people, Obama called for gun control - because “these things don’t happen in other countries.”

Nor when Christians are slaughtered, do these virtue signalers call for support for the Christian communities.

dehumanizing stereotypes, hysterical conspiracy theories, & hatred

I have seldom seen a better description of the demonic Koran.

Well done, Sandy. well done.
