Muslim shopkeeper Sarkar Haq, who was beaten in an alleged hate crime, speaks during an interview at his shop in New York on December 7, 2015. Muslim American leaders accused Republican Presidential hopeful Donald Trump of incitement for demanding a "complete shutdown" of Muslims entering the US after a New York shopkeeper was beaten in an alleged hate crime. Trump's stunning statement followed last week's mass shooting in California by a Muslim couple believed to have been radicalized by extremists, and landed with a thunderclap just as fellow presidential candidates were contemplating ways to improve national security.
