A man passing Abuzaid, along with her younger cousins and siblings, called them a "bunch of terrorists" on Saturday in Sugar Land Town Square, Abuzaid recounted in a Facebook post that has since been shared on the medium more than 2,500 times.

Abuzaid was the eldest of her family members present at the time. The youngest was 10.

The group had been walking to their car after lunch when they passed the verbally abusive man and a woman, Abuzaid said in a phone interview Tuesday. Abuzaid was walking in front and was the only one with a hijab, a head covering worn in public by some Muslim women.

“If you don’t want to be called a terrorist, quit dressing like one.”

Bears repeating.

Wait, it doesn’t say she’s a Muslim. That’s bizarre.

I get tired of sensitive people treating verbal insults as the end of the world like they should be absolutely protected from being offended. It protects harmful cultural influences and obscene or dangerous behavior.

Made her so mad she could drive a car into a crowd.

If she was allowed to but women in that culture are not permitted to drive.

If she was in a hajib, she should have been out with a husband or other male in her family.

She has way too much freedom to be in this situation for it to be true.
