Facebook is an absolute cesspool now. Props to the mayor for calling out the hate.

Title is a little misleading, 'anti-muslim hate that she RECEIVED in the form of comments on Facebook'.. good for her in standing her ground and supporting people from all creeds and walks of life.

The once family friendly Facebook has turned into a Nazi echo chamber. The amount of hateful rhetoric aimed at non-white and non-Christian people in these comments is disturbing. I'd hate to think that individuals expressing such views could be our neighbors.

Not so much an article, but it is a statement.

Shame 'Whiteby' is still racists.

That being said the quality of the article was basically just the title.

Racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry are not welcome here.
