A man sent anti-Muslim tweets to a political candidate in Virginia. He was not expecting the response he received.
Rashid, a Muslim immigrant from Pakistan who is seeking the House seat of Republican Rep. Rob Wittman, said in his social media posts that when he learned of Dillon's difficulties, he donated to help cover the couple's"crushing medical debt.", adding that he donated $55 to Dillon's GoFundMe. Rashid also encouraged his followers to donate to Dillon's campaign.
Rashid said on social media that he later received a"thoughtful" and"compassionate" apology from Dillon, who also asked that the aspiring lawmaker visit him, which he did. Dillon confirmed that he sent the anti-Muslim tweets and described his meeting with Rashid as"astounding" and"mind-boggling" in an interview with NBC News on Tuesday.Dillon said that a handful of his loved ones were in direct danger during the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and that after the attacks, he had a hatred toward radical Islam.
