We barely have free speech in the world today. This is just another reminder. I mean saying something on Twitter can get you arrested. Saying the word bomb in an airport can do the same.
I think what happened is devastating, but I'm scared it will just turn into another excuse for Islamophobia. The authorities are guilty of the same thing. This is a handy way of deflecting that. Hate begets hate.
This is my favourite response.
