Jake Lang Desecrates Quran During Plano March as Muslims Respond with Food Drive

A three‑hour anti‑mosque march led by Florida Senate candidate and pardoned Jan. 6 defendant Jake Lang through Plano, Texas, ended without injuries but left a stark picture of clashing visions of America, as captured by Context Corner correspondent Rich Matthews. While Lang’s “Americans Against Islamization” supporters chanted that Muslims were “here to take over our country” and desecrated a Quran with a pig and strips of bacon, police kept them separated from a small group of young Muslims who followed the route. The East Plano Islamic Center responded by running a food drive and free medical clinic for anyone in need.
