Would that be enough for some of the posters here? Or do you need more?

I would stop at fired. She isn't fit to work with child from all the data we have on the negatuve impact of racist teachers on young people.

Islam is not a race. Stop making a fool out of yourself.

I wonder why every verbal attack is against a woman. Is it because women are pretty much defenseless and an attacker is too scared to be punched in the face by a man as a response to verbal attack?
This woman probably skipped her meds that day ...how big of a bitch one has to be to assault someone who just let you in line in front of them? Either assault someone if it itches so bad, or except a favor and keep it shut.

Stop making a fool of YOURself. Bigotry against Muslims would not exist if Muslims were predominantly Irish. It is because they are perceived as foreign, with brown skin, and speaking a different language, that they are targeted by racists like this woman in the first place. Quibbling over semantics on the definitions of racism versus religious bigotry is missing the point by a mile. Stop wasting time and stop kidding yourself: if you are indifferent to hatred, then just admit your adoption of it and go have some guacamole with that idiot. I'm sure she could use a friend right now.

Actually, the bigotry isn't due to color. It's because a subset of them have said they want to kill Westerners and do.

Yes that's why I don't want anything to do with men - because a subset of them have beaten and killed the women in their lives.

This woman lives in a suburb of Montgomery county (down 270 - think exit 13ish), a WFHM, she is super active in her kids' schools (room parent) - born and raised close to where she lives now. She has always been opinionated and had no problem expressing herself. She frequently would say outrageous things - but back when we hung out socially it was never racist. However, over the last few years she has increasingly put more and more racists and anti-muslim posts on her FB page. She posted about the Rockville illegal immigrant student acussed of rape (charges now dropped) and used it as an excuse to rail against immigration policies. She hates Obama and hates Hillary even more. She would UNQUESTIONABLY be the type of person to do something just like this. She is sane, she is respected in her little bubble and she is teaching her three kids to be racist just like her.

You guys need to know that there are many people out there just like her. They may not live in downtown DC but they don't all live in Kansas or Ohio either. Don't fool yourself that someone has to be mentally ill to pull this off.

If you are wondering why I'm still following her on FB - it's because I really want to know what people like her are thinking. I want to understand how we can be so fundamentally different. This is a person I used to genuinely like. I still don't have any answers but wanted to share - she's not crazy and she's not alone.

I think I know this woman too - though I was unclear if she had gone to college so maybe not.
Her DH is a doctor? Did she move to Ga? She's a sahm but is rabidly angry if 'people' get benefits like healthcare when they haven't 'earned it'.
What the hell has she earned? She's more valuable than someone who works in a service industry job or who works PT - because why?
Because she married a doctor?!! Her 3 beautiful sweet kids are absorbing all the hateful crap. Only the churches can give out money (except for anything they disagree with which is everything).
I turned her off on FB but I turn her back on when I want to feel the hate.

Well if course she is. Some of the meannest most hateful people I've ever met were special ed teachers or therapists for special kids.

Ok, was this woman ever identified?

Just coincidental that the comedian who posted this was about to do a show nearby?

https://www.facebook.com/JeremyMcLellanComedy/videos/1510455688995601/

According to the Facebook post, the Muslim woman let another woman cut in front of her in the check out line. The woman began bad mouthing another Muslim woman in the store. The woman then began harassing the first Muslim woman (the one who had let her cut in line). At this point, the Muslim woman began recording the incident. The harasser says, "I wish they didn't let you in the country." The Muslim woman replies by clarifying that she had been born here. The harasser than says that Obama is no longer president and there is not a Muslim in the White House anymore.

Pretty outrageous way to treat someone who has just done you a favor.

Caveat emptor: while much of this interaction is on video, we don't see the entire incident and every story has two sides. If anyone wants to find a way to excuse what is recorded, be my guest.

I would say the bolded is important to me. I want the entire story. I live in the area and I've gone into the local Costco (no longer do) and leave your cart for a moment to, say, walk 10 feet away to get something, Muslim women have actually shopped out of my cart. When I say, 'excuse me, that's mine', they laugh and walk away. Not "Oh, I'm SO sorry". And then I see them doing the same thing to someone else. It's clearly deliberate. Western FFX County has had many incidents and issues with rudeness, never mind Asian women being held as slaves. Past tolerance is starting to give way to frustration.

Ha! I live in Western Fairfax as well and twice at the Fairfax Costco, someone has taken my things out of my cart and then tried to take my cart. Then they pretended like they didn't know it was someone's cart. Twice! I thought it was just me.

What? Why are Muslim women in particular doing this?

I don't think the word is 'Muslim'. How do you know they are Episcopalian or Methodists?

Someone took my one item out of my cart and took off with my cart. She was Asian middle aged. I had walked away from my cart and then i saw it happen. I was so surprised that I didn't say anything. This was at a Fairfax county Costco

Are you implying a Muslim woman tried to steal that woman's cart, throwing out her avocados?

And then the muslim woman and her husband can go back to Trader Joe's and kill all the infidels-perfect ending to such a tragic "incident " about line cutting while buying avocados.

You people sound just as bad as the woman/friend you berate! So judgmental! Types like you are the reason Trump got elected. Go back to your bubble in Bethesda, where you will not have to deal with people up by exit 13 (heaven forbid!), or the illegals that you so proudly praise for lawbreaking. it is behavior like yours that will lead to this country demise!

I had a white woman at HomeGoods take candles out of my cart. So it's not really a religion/race thing. There is no way I would have concluded that all white women steal things out of carts based on the incident.

Also white people. A subset of white people are terrible. Haven't you heard of the KKK and Nazis? Dylann Roof? The IRA? Those white people are bad news.
