The White House on Tuesday condemned “death to America” chants that surfaced online from a recent rally in Dearborn, Mich., protesting Israel’s war in Gaza.
Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre replied, “yes” when asked if President Biden condemns the comments in the chants, which were captured on video by some attendees.
“Peaceful protests are something that the president has also been very clear that, its important to give folks space to peacefully protest. But any type of violent rhetoric, we are going to denounce,” she said.
Dearborn mayor Abdullah Hammoud (D) has also denounced the chants, sharing in a statement on X that “Dearborn is a city of proud Americans.”
I pity you living in fear like you do mate and I hope one day you can find some solace.
Have a nice day.
Uhh who said I live in fear. I don’t live in a little bubble like you two seem to be doing but w/e.
Dude I live in Manchester. We’ve been bombed twice and had a riots once whilst I’ve been here.
Still don’t believe one group of people are terrorists. First time we were bombed was the IRA actually.
Ok and what does that have to do with the point that Islam as a religion is more violent than any other religion in the modern day?
Strange that the most violence comes towards those nations. From either the USA to Iraq and Afghanistan or Irsael to Palestine.
To reiterate none of any group are all the same. I could argue all people on lemmy are idiots after interacting with you, but alas I won’t do that.
Nice whataboutism… seriously you’re delusional if you think that islam doesn’t produce more violence than any other group.
