YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThreats and violence against Muslims appear to be on the rise. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Police are investigating threats made on social media to Muslim American activist Linda Sarsour.
The prominent activist and Women’s March on Washington co-chair reported the threat to police on Friday. A man going by the name of Glenn Maccioli reportedly wrote on Facebook: “This b***h is in Brooklyn. Anyone know where? I would like to spit in her face.”
The comment was made under an article about Sarsour posted on the “Bay Ridge Talk” Facebook page, according to New York Daily News.
The New York Police Department’s Hate Crime Task Force confirmed to The Huffington Post on Wednesday that it was investigating the incident as a case of “aggravated harassment.” Sgt. Lee Jones said the investigation was ongoing and no arrests have been made.
Sarsour could not be reached for comment on Wednesday.
The Palestinian-American social justice activist has been targeted in the past. Following the historic Women’s March, conservative and anti-Muslim sites launched an attack on Sarsour, baselessly accusing her of supporting terrorism. The Daily Caller, FrontPageMag, the American Thinker, The Gateway Pundit and a slew of anti-Muslim hate sites published disparaging articles about the organizer in the days after the march.
“The opposition cannot fathom to see a Palestinian Muslim American woman that resonates with the masses,” Sarsour said in a Facebook post. “Someone whose track record is clear and has always stood up for the most marginalized.”
She added that it wasn’t the first time she’d been attacked online, but said, “It’s definitely more intense ― the fact that my children see it is what is bothering me the most.””*
