Pride in my school, not in my catholicism

Anyways in 9th grade i was at the park shooting around by myself when one of a group of arabic kids came up and told me that i was risking an ass whooping wearing that shirt because his friends "hate catholics". My mom lived in a mostly arabic part of dearborn at the time.

I shrugged and went back about my business, nothing happened, the end. I actually always liked that Dearborn had a unique cultural identity and at no point ever really thought there would be an actual problem.

The persecution that wasnt.

Recently, that crazy fuck from Gainesville FL came to Dearborn to rally anti-muslim fervor. The white people in dearborn basically harassed him until he left. That was beautiful to me because Dearborn is hella peaceful. Candlelight vigils by all community members after 9/11 and what not.
