Colleen R. LaRose - "La Rose lived in several Texas towns, including San Angelo and Corpus Christi, before moving to the Philadelphia area in 2004." Wikipedia
I don't know but you have some people with some strong beliefs in that area. I wonder will they call her a terrorist or since she is white she is just misguided or maybe brainwashed by Islam.
I had an inexplicable Randy Jackson moment when this nonsense came on my screen yesterday. You know when he shakes his head and says,"Yo-dawg, not good dawg, sorry dawg, I mean, it just wasn't good."
Perhaps because it was just so bizarre, but for some reason I was just annoyed. The reaction was akin to what I feel when I see a black man at an African-American festival in African garb, holding hands with a blonde with dreads and a Malcolm X t-shirt.
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs; "We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem; "...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression; "Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)

Hey Texas, we have enough crack-pots of our own, we don't need yours,
Sincerely,
Philadelphia
