As I have said before 2 of my daughters are Muslim. About a week ago one of them was in a large grocery store at the deli counter. She saw a package of rotisserie sitting under the heat light window. As she reached in to get it the employee at the deli snatched it up real fast & then snatched up ALL the chickens and put them on the shelf behind her where customers can't go. Then she smirked at my daughter. My daughters have had beer bottles thrown at their heads, they have had men in cars yell that they would be back at night to rape them. You have no idea how terrified I am some freaky trumpster is going to do something gawdawful to them

OH.. they live in DFW
