Yea people who downvote this comment must not know Hasan. Occasionally like in this case, he does say the right thing. But much more often he does not. His whole shtick is trying to say the right thing that will get him the most attention for any given situation without having any actual moral or ethical consistency. He will say anything if he thinks it will get him a follow..

The people who downvote my comment are the same who donate him money, instead of donating it to the people who actually need it.

As he presents himself as "left", there's not many personalities that the left can actually cling to.
