Muslim groups have raised more than $500,000 for the heroes killed while defending two women who were being harassed by an Islamophobic passenger on a train in Portland last week.
Ricky Best and Taliesin Myrddin Namkai-Meche were fatally stabbed, and Micah Fletcher was critically wounded by a man who was shouting bigoted slurs at teenagers who appeared to be Muslim.
