that don't really represent americans in general, and also all the unfortunate incidents and terroriststattacks that are happening by few, few, few minority, that do not represent what my faith is, what islam really is. and there is no better time or ace to prove this and to counter this, than the time and the place that we're in right now. in the spirit of unity this christmas, hassan is asking that his neighobrs stand together, as muslims, as non-muslims, as americans - and help the salvation army. the go fund me page is now up and running and people are donating, but they are far shy of their 30-thousand dollar goal. if you'd like to donate, you can find the link on our website. one e n is dead - after police in pennsylvania -
