Ali Khawaja won't come to the cemetery unless he's carrying a gun.
"I'm scared now. When I come I take a gun with me," said Khawaja, caretaker of the United Islamic Youth Organization's mosque in north Adelanto.
The silver revolver he holds in a black beanie cap is a response to acts of vandalism perpetrated against the mosque in recent weeks.

In addition to countering the "Unveiling the Cartoons: A Discussion of Free Speech and World Response" event, MSU also sought to "proactively educate the community about Islam and who Muhammad is," said Hussam Ayloush, Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, who spoke at the MSU event.
