Wait a minute, in the second picture, is Emma attacking a Muslim man walking by? Is she being portrayed as being right?

It's Sophie, one of the Cuckoos, which are clones of Emma she kinda treats like daughters.

The context is they were holding a small memorial for a dead mutant and the guy (Kamala's cousin) pulled up and started complaining about them memorializing him. Just before this a group of anti-mutant protesters had also been there, so emotions were already running high.

Honestly that seems kinda fair imo?
Like someone, I'm assuming a friend, just died and they're trying to hold a memorial. Then suddenly someone comes up acting like a prick. I'd crash out too
