In 2001, a little while after 9/11, I was walking down the street and saw a Muslim woman getting out of a car. She was in a full black hijab, but her face wasn't veiled. An older, hippie-esque couple was walking towards her just ahead of me, and the man called out to her, "Free yourself, sister!"
"Why?", she said. "So I can be like you?"
Peace.

People spouting ugliness and judgement see it and spread it wherever they go. Good for her, and peace to you, and all of us.
