My daughter was picking up her mail this evening when she witnessed a particularly disturbing incident. The building she was exiting is next to a Middle Eastern store. A Muslim woman, fully covered, was bringing bags of items into the store, when one bag broke and sent its contents flying onto the ground....right in the middle of the roadway.
A 50ish woman in a luxury SUV stopped by the Muslim woman and started heckling her. My daugher ripped off her name badge, threw her mail into her car, and started ripping the woman in the vehicle a new a**hole. She had to take off her badge because she is a prosecutor, and it would be inappropriate for her to appear to be acting in an official capacity.
She asked the woman just what problem she had with the Muslim woman. The woman replied, "Well she BOMBED us!" My daughter went into her line of questioning...' Really? This woman here bombed us? How do you know she had anything to do with it? etc.' She went on to say that there are good people in all religions and bad people in all religions...that she didn't think the hatred and ugliness this woman was demonstrating was any part of Christianity, and more. Finally, she told her, "You know, uber-fundamentalist Christians like you have done as much to damage this country as those that bombed us!"
The woman's mouth just dropped open and she sped off.
