The number of anti-Muslim incidents and crimes in the U.S. surged last year to some of the highest levels seen in recent times, according to a new report from a prominent Muslim civil rights organization.
The report by the Council on American-Islamic Relations documented a 57% increase in anti-Muslim incidents last year compared with 2015.

The report by the Council on American-Islamic Relations
CAIR can pound sand.

This was reported months ago. As I recall, the anti-Muslim crimes jumped from about 168 to about 270, about five per state, and most of them involved graffiti or verbal harassment. In one day, in one web site, leftist trolls perpetrate much more verbal harassment against conservatives than occurs against Muslims in an entire year.
For the sake of argument, say all these anti-Muslim crimes were perpetrated by people who voted for Trump. That would comprise about .000003 of ONE-PERCENT of Trump voters.

They probably count the cop take-downs of moslem shooters as well.

Yep, I'm pretty sure that the reporter and CAIR are both unbiased sources of news and that the 57% number is completely accurate and truthful.

When CAIR is doing the polling, yes. The beatdown a Muslim man receives after throwing acid in the face of woman on the street is also anti-islamic violence. Adherent muslims *really* need their *own* country. Oh, wait, they have several ... Only the U.S.A. is unique in the world, and that is what they are trying to "fix".

Is that reported “incidents”, or are those numbers after the hoaxes have been removed from the list?

Whenever I encounter a muslim I glare at that with white-hot hostility. I occasionally mutter under my breath too. It’s my small contribution.

No, it’s just time for them to all be deported, since there is absolutely no assimilation for Muslims.

I would guess that majority are bogus.
It is hard to love somebody who wants to kill you and in the most horrific ways as ISIS has demonstrated.

Yo, Jaw-Jaw, did CAIR include the “honor killings” and “honor beatings” inflicted on mooselimb wives who had the audacity to cook an unsatisfactory meal or daughters who dared date a white devil?
