<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

My boyfriend is Jewish and his congregation here in Chicago is one of the ones [that was targeted by terrorists.](

His congregation is GLBT-friendly, which may be why they were targeted but no one knows just yet. There were cops at services and everyone is really freaked out. 

We're both very left-wing politically, but my boyfriend came home from services and was ranting about "those Al-Queda fuckers". He sounded like a tea-bagger, nearly incoherent with anger. He calmed down after about an hour and he said he felt sick over how bigoted he felt.

We talked about it, and rationally we know that getting angry at "Muslims" makes about as much sense as hating "Germans" because a guy from Munich broke into my car once (true story) and that it's just a raw nerve. 

Before he went to bed, he said something that I've been thinking about. "I just feel helpless. I want to stand up and say 'FUCK YOU' to these assholes. But I don't want more hate in the world, especially at Muslims, like they need more shit in their lives these days."

So what can we do? I mean, not just my boyfriend, but his congregation? These are really decent people. A couple years ago the Fred Phelps jackholes showed up and the congregation had a huge inter-faith counter-protest. 

What can they do to take a stand? Send a message? Maybe just work out some of the anger they're feeling right now? 

I'll pass along your ideas.
<bot>: Terrorists want to kill my boyfriend. How can he tell them to fuck off without adding to the hatred in the world?
