“How the actual f*** did this even happen!?”

Not sure. But I keep remembering Bush 43 telling us that we have nothing to fear from the Muslims and their religion of peace. That was right after they murdered thousands of Americans.

Around after 9/11 happen, I came home from my job and college classes and my sister was crying on the couch with my mom, and asked them what happened? My mom told me my sister’s best friend’s Dad was shot in the head at a convenience store down in Texas.

He co-owned a convenience store in New Jersey with his brother and they bought one down in Texas and were going to relocate their families down their once they got the one in Texas going and sell everything in New Jersey. And possibly buy a 2nd store in Texas as well. Well some racist redneck idiot decided it was his duty to kill a Muslim to answer for 9/11 so he walked into the convenience store and shot the man in the face, murdering him. Just because he wore a Turban, he was a Sheik, not even a Muslim.

Violence against Muslims and people who were perceived to be Muslims rose right after 9/11 and George W Bush made that speech to help quell America’s fear and anxiety.

I know now that 18 years later that what he said seems very “pro Muslim” and less “don’t kill people you think are Muslim” today, but at the time, and with in perspective of what was going on. I will say, George W Bush did the right thing by saying what he did.
