Also recently, from people I know in the area - blatant fear-mongering that animal sacrifice will occur in a stadium that kills hundreds of birds annually. Minnesota has one of the largest Muslim/Somali populations in the US. https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2018/08/20/us-bank-stadium-muslim-super-eid-animal-sacrifice/ …

you're not crossing the gap between (wicked) racism and self-interest once again
