Ok. Meanwhile we are discussing this on thread about a tourist that was assaulted and jailed by turkey men. Exactly the same as other attacks towards LGBTQ+ that have happened in all europe by Islamic/muslisms/middle eastern men. Exactly the same as I have been assaulted by these people in germany.

Now how many Islamic people have been attacked by members of the LGBTQ+ community? I will be waiting for your answer.

@Everyone else: Dont let these people guilty you into not wanting these homophobic people around you. Im glad to receive and accept islam, once they have purged homophobia from their roots. Unfortunately that's not it today, and the attacks towards LGBTQ are not stopping and will keep increasing as long as we let them. Cities in Europe that were once safe spaces are not full with these homophobic people. Just some months ago, a group of Islamic attacked a trans person and he ended up in the hospital. This year and last year while I was walking towards the pride demonstration I was screamed homophobic slurs from a moving car in an area that is filled with these homophobic people. I am happy to accept islam, I will never accept homophobic islam, period.

    I'm sorry on behalf of those shitty Muslims for what they did to you. Hate towards any group in any form is haram. I don't know what they were thinking when they thought acting like that was ok.

    As for where you're asking where Muslims have been attacked by people of the LGBT+ community, I can't observe a physical event at the time of writing, as I don't have the time to research this. However, I have seen plenty of verbal abuse across the internet by irrational members of the LGBT+ community towards many Muslims.

    To generalise the entire community based off of these morons would be hypocritical of me when I ask you to please not generalise Muslims as people due to the actions of the few with extremist opinions.

    Homophobes and racists should not exist, prejudice is cultural and a lot of the time revolves around socio-economic reality. Even in the richest western countries homophobia is still a problem, and not just in the minority communities that are fucked 6 ways to Sunday for the most part anyway. Creating boogeymen is what cultures do, and just as religious people create gay boogeymen; in the west, white people create non-white boogeymen.

    Trauma is universal. Don't be a bigot!
