de nosotros estábamos en casa en ese momento.
Esta fue una vil protesta,
arraigada en la supremacía blanca,
titulada“ Alto a la toma islámica de la ciudad de Nueva York”.
Soy el primer alcalde
musulmán de
nuestra ciudad.
La intolerancia
antimusulmana no es
nada nuevo para mí, ni es nada nuevo para el aproximadamente millón de musulmanes
neoyorquinos que conocemos esta ciudad como nuestro hogar. Aunque esta protesta me
pareció espantosa,
no voy a flaquear en mi convicción de que debe permitirse que ocurra.
La nuestra es una sociedad libre
donde el derecho a la protesta pacífica es sagrado.
No pertenece solo a
quienes pensamos como nosotros,
pertenece a todos.
Defenderé ese derecho todos los días que sea alcalde,
incluso cuando quienes protestan digan cosas que aborrezco.
Permítanme también dejar algo más en claro.
La ciudad de Nueva York nunca tolerará la violencia,
ya sea de las protestas o de las contraprotestas.
Muchos de los contramanifestantes
respondieron pacíficamente a esta muestra de intolerancia,
con una visión de una ciudad que dé la bienvenida a todos.
Pero unos pocos no
lo hicieron.
Dos hombres,
Amir Balat e
Ibrahim Qayumi,
viajaron desde
Pensilvania e intentaron
traer violencia
a la ciudad de Nueva York.
Se sospecha
que vinieron
aquí para cometer un acto de
terrorismo.
Hay un video de estos dos individuos lanzando dos artefactos hacia la protesta.
El departamento de policía ha determinado que eran
artefactos explosivos improvisados hechos para herir,
mutilar o algo peor.
Gracias a las acciones rápidas y decisivas de los agentes del NYPD en el lugar,
ambos hombres fueron inmediatamente
detenidos y los artefactos que trajeron retirados de nuestras calles.
Quiero felicitar a
los agentes
que estaban
en el lugar.

This was a vile protest rooted in white supremacy entitled Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City. I am the first Muslim mayor of our city. Anti-Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me,
Anti-Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me, Anti-Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me, nor is it anything new for the one million or so Muslim New Yorkers who know this city as our home. While I found this protest appalling, I will not waver in my belief that it should be allowed to happen. Ours is a free society where the right to peaceful protest is sacred.
It does not belong only to those we agree with, it belongs to everyone. It does not belong only to those we agree with, it belongs to everyone. I will defend that right every day that I am mayor, even when those protesting say things that I abhor.

New York City will never tolerate violence, whether from protests or counter-protests. Many of the counter-protesters met this display of bigotry peacefully, with a vision of a city that is welcoming to all. But a few did not. Two men, Amir Balat and Ibrahim Qayumi, traveled from Pennsylvania
