The moment the news came flooding on my Facebook timeline, I instantly knew. A Muslim did it... Because who else, right?
What is wrong with the people of my religion? Why are so many becoming terrorists and murderers? Didn't the religion tell us to be good? To be faithful, to trust in God and to JUST BE GOOD? Why are people in this religion killing innocents? Why are they making it so hard being a Muslim?
I'm thankful for the fact I was born and raised in this country. Wasatiah. That's what they reminded us to be. It's just simple logic. Once you fall too deep into something, be it a religion, race, video games, drugs or whatever, you lose sense of reality. You become angry. Extremism makes you a murderer in the name of that faith that swallowed your common sense. Sad reality that is.
I didn't read too much about the Manchester tragedy. I just knew it happened after an Ariana Grande concert. 22 people killed, mostly kids. And a Muslim from Libya did it. He suicide-bombed the arena because he was a coward. He probably thought he'd go to heaven after all that. Dumb-ass. And here we are, the rest of the Muslims in the world trying to convince others that he didn't represent our faith. He was a loser, selfish bastard who screwed up and cowardly took innocent lives because he was scared to die alone.
It's so hard being a Muslim in this world. I understand why most people hate us. And I can't help but to keep apologizing to the world. I just hope one day, it will all be better. God, help us all. Amen.
But I'm just one person.
