Miss Puerto Rico 2015 has been suspended by the Miss Puerto Rico organization following an anti-Muslim rant last week.
Destiny Velez, 20, posted the hateful messages to her Twitter account, which has since been deleted. According to the Washington Times, one of Velez’s tweets read, “If we are all the same then Muslims need to take off their napkins off of their heads cuz (sic) I feel offended by it.”
The Latin Times reported that some of Velez’s other tweets included, “all what Muslims have done is provided oil & terrorize this country & many others!!!!!!”; “all they do is build their mosques, feel offended by American values and terrorize innocent Americans and plant gas stations”; and “there’s NO comparison between Jews, Christians & Muslims. Jews nor Christians have terrorizing agendas in their sacred books.”
