• Community leaders say foiled Illinois mass shooting was result of surge in anti-Hindu hate online (azfamily.com) — Community leaders are warning that a foiled mass shooting at a Hindu temple near Chicago stems from years of escalating anti-Hindu rhetoric online and in local forums, including city council comments in Frisco that have labeled Indian residents as “invaders.” For Frisco’s large Indian community, the report links hostile speech, vandalism of temples nationwide, and rising online slurs to real-world safety concerns and renewed calls for stronger hate-crime responses.
