I am horrified by the deadly attack at the Islamic Center of San Diego, an apparent act of anti-Muslim violence.
Islamophobia endangers Muslim communities across this country. We must confront it directly and stand together against the politics of fear and division. My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and the entire community grieving this devastating attack.
The NYPD is increasing deployments to mosques across the city out of an abundance of caution. There are currently no known threats to NYC houses of worship.

@MutahNapoleon You are the terrorists. We are defending our country.

You mean the terrorist who shot up the mosque? Or is he not considered a terrorist because he’s christian?

Christopher Nolan, responding in Time magazine this week to the avalanche of criticism over his Odyssey casting choices:
"Hopefully they'll enjoy the film, even if they don't agree with everything. We had a lot of scientists complain about Interstellar. But you just don't want people to think that you took it on frivolously."
He built a real seaworthy ship, shot entirely on 70mm IMAX, and spent $250 million. Is Nolan being dismissed too quickly, or did his casting choices earn the backlash?

Byron Donalds: “George Floyd was murdered.”
Is this guy even a Republican???
Byron Donalds@ByronDonalds
George Floyd's murder was a tragedy and justice must be done, but if we truly want justice we must come together as one America. We can't be divided and fall into violence. We can't target the people protecting our communities. I hope you'll stand with me. byrondonalds.com

I condemn the deadly attack on a mosque in San Diego. My thoughts are with those affected.
I know many Muslims in the UK will be shaken by this, worried about their safety when going about their lives and attending mosque, and what it says about the times we’re living in. I understand those fears.
Violence like this does not happen in a vacuum. It grows in an environment where division and anti-Muslim hostility are normalised.
That is intolerable. We must all come together against it.

There’s been national discourse surrounding Mallard Creek’s disqualification in the 4x400m relay in this past weekend’s NCHSAA 8A State Championships. The DQ cost them the team title and disrupted what would’ve been a phenomenal feat of 5 straight titles.
Rules based on judgment calls always leave room for error. This was such. For the “he was warned” crowd, here’s video of him breaking the 300mH record. To be defined as taunting, doesn’t there have to be a target? It’s unrealistic to expect no human emotion when huge accomplishments are achieved.
Nyan Brown is a good kid; Mallard Creek’s athletes worked hard. NCHSAA got this one wrong.

A High School was ROBBED of a State Championship
The Mallard Creek boys track and field team was disqualified for taunting because Ngannou Brown raised his hand before crossing the line to win the 4x400m relay.
THIS ISN’T TAUNTING OR UNSPORSTMANLIKE

Man violently resists arrest during a traffic stop.
Two troopers don't hold back and BODYSLAM him straight to the ground.
Was this justified or excessive force?

update:
the schizo black guy who assaulted me has now self-identified as Indigenous and will be going through a special court where a judge is required to consider the impact of colonialism when determining his sentence and reduce it accordingly.

pagliacci the hated 🌝@Slatzism
WELL I was assaulted by a schizo homeless guy today in Toronto. I was walking to the grocery store when he started stalking me. I tried to get away from him but it didn’t work. He grabbed me, pinned me against a fence, and then tried to break my hand to steal my phone. Three people passing by helped save me. The police were quick and kind, but the officer I spoke with told me this guy had been arrested for attacking people repeatedly in the past month, and “fair warning, a judge will probably let him out by tomorrow morning.” 🫠 lovely system we got goin on here folks

Horrifying video circulating online shows a man suddenly running up and kicking a baby stroller at the Nassau County Courthouse in Mineola, NY. Witnesses say the stroller had a young child inside when the suspect approached without warning, delivered a hard kick, right in front of officers.
Thankfully, the baby appears to have avoided serious injury, but the mother is understandably traumatized.
