As an active christian myself i absolutely hate the ignorant nonsense people say about muslims, and it often comes from christians feeling smug and secure in the comfort of their religiong completely forgetting all the horrible things some christians have done in the past and continue to do.<br /> i dont have any good advice though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-on-speaking-out-against-islamaphobia#post-2668095 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 13:06:21 +0000 Lilbear 2668095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: @Adira: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: omg you ladies are AMAZING!!!

I was so incredibly enraged by this pamphlet and this makes me feel so much better about fighting back in a very productive fashion!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-on-speaking-out-against-islamaphobia#post-2668055 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 12:24:44 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2668055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Contact <a href="https://www.splcenter.org" rel="nofollow">https://www.splcenter.org</a> and any other watch dog groups you can think of. </p> <p>Just reading your post made my heart speed up. Propaganda is a public safety issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-on-speaking-out-against-islamaphobia#post-2668040 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 12:10:34 +0000 Adira 2668040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did they have an address? I'd send them a letter and let them know you are donating to the United Muslim Relief fund in their name!</p> <p><a href="http://umrelief.org/" rel="nofollow">http://umrelief.org/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-on-speaking-out-against-islamaphobia#post-2668035 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 12:05:57 +0000 littlebug 2668035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Report it to the USPS Office of Inspector General (1-888-877-7644). And I would call your state's Attorney General. That is hate mail and, as best as I can tell from quick research, is illegal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/advice-needed-on-speaking-out-against-islamaphobia#post-2668025 Tue, 20 Dec 2016 11:46:11 +0000 Lilbear 2668025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I AM SEETHING MAD right now, and I would love some advice on how to handle this situation... yesterday my husband randomly received a letter and "informational" pamphlet from a Christian group informing people of the dangers of Islam. The cover of the pamphlet is a picture of a person who is fully shrouded and pointing a gun and the inside is full of every hateful and fear-mongering talking point you can possibly imagine: women valued less than goats, sharia law, they want to "kill us all" etc. I have NO IDEA how we ended up on their mailing list since we are not at all active in the church. (We were raised Roman Catholic,but don't practice as adults. We are basically one step away from atheism.) The best part is, they were also asking for money donations to further their message!!!!!! I am so horrified and disgusted by these people! I tried to call their phone number to ask to be removed from their mailing list, but nobody answered the phone. Then I thought I should ask the hive for advice, because these people are obviously insane and I don't want to become one of their targets either. </p> <p>I have to do something though! It is so so wrong and I have to help stick up for the majority of people who practice this peaceful religion. I can't stay silent in the face of hatred and bigotry, especially in this political climate. What would you ladies do? </p>
