It’d certainly be nice if these things didn’t happen but the reality is that there are worse public displays than this vigil happening hundreds of times every year, targeting any number of minority groups, including Jews, Muslims, and LGBTQ folks.
The best we can do is the best we do for any of them. Publicly condemn it and show up in peaceful protest against it. If you’re worried about the people being harmed by these things, speak out and show up, make sure they don’t feel like they’re alone and that this stuff is acceptable.
