Gun-toting demonstrators surrounded a mosque in Florida on Saturday screaming: ‘Stop the Islamization of America!’
The group of around 15 people outside the Islamic Center of Irving carried placards in an apparent protest against accepting Syrian refugees.
It comes just over a week after the Islamic State terrorist attacks on Paris, which sparked a surge in Islamophobia in the United States.
Earlier this week, death threats were called in to two mosques in Florida, and an Eiffel Tower was graffittied onto another. In Pflugerville, Texas, feces and torn pages of the Koran were left at the doorstep of a mosque.
On Saturday, worshippers were subjected to taunts and shouts as they made their way to prayer service.
