Minneapolis Installs Sharia Hotline to Report Americans Who Criticize Islam
he city of Minneapolis has set up a hotline for residents to report citizens who criticize Islam, in order to prosecute them for hate crimes, according to statements on the citys website.
Whoops, sorry kids.
Might not be true.
The hotline was not exclusive to Islamophobia or any other specific kind of hate crime, was not intended as a forum for reports about criticism of Islam, and was never referred to as a “Sharia” hotline.

Unreal!! Minneapolis is so lost.
From your link...
The citys Department of Civil Rights clearly states on its website that it only enforces hate crimes against certain protected classes. Muslim imams, as members of the protected class, can preach the destruction of America from a Minneapolis mosque, and they will not be prosecuted.
A city official also admitted the creation of the sharia hotline was the election of President Trump and that the targets are his supporters.
Since the general election, many of us have experienced, witnessed firsthand or heard of actions of: racism, xenophobia, sexism and bigotry directed at people here and in cities across the United States, Minneapolis Department of Civil Rights Director Velma Korbel wrote in a statement posted on the citys website. In no uncertain terms, hate-motivated speech and actions have no place in Minneapolis nor will they be tolerated.

Almost reads as satire. But, since it’s Minneapolis, I wouldn’t be surprised, if true.
I can’t believe this is happening in our country.
