I, too, wonder how Muslim oppression of girls and women is tolerated here in a country which “invented” the worth of the individual. I left Florida and now live in North Carolina where the sight of one of these poor creatures is an occasion for whispering and stares, they are so rare.
In Florida my liberal Democrat friends offered a progressive’s explanation. It was that “just because you choose to live in America doesn’t mean you become an American. It is not realistic to expect immigrants to adopt our language, culture, mores, or religious beliefs.”
I think this is how the United States will end. Detroit will become a Muslim city state ruled by sharia and fatwa. The West Coast will become a province of China; New England will become one large, collective farm that provides milk for Ben & Jerry’s. The South and Southwest will become part of Mexico known as Provincia de Dinero. The United States will be no more, but its values will go on in Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and Alaska.
p>But, as always, I digress. There is a much simpler explanation of why little Arab girls and women were their hideous clothes: if they don’t their husbands and fathers will kill them. br> —
