22. It is when Muslim women and children are vilified and attacked.

Need an example?

Ahmed Mohamed, for starters. Even Malala dealt with a lot of hate... (how can anybody hate Malala????) How about refugees fleeing the very people some accuse them of being?

Mosques with Muslim women and children in them have been vandalized, some women have had their hijabs ripped off their heads. We've seen this before - it's always the same pattern.

Have a seat.

Unless you're joking ... I can't tell if you're serious, it's such an absurd comment to make.
