This happened in Powder Springs Ga. in Cobb County
As an aside, for a long while someone posted a picture of the burning Twin Towers with the caption “All I needed to know about Islam I learned on 9-11”.
Do Christians in Kenya practise FGM, or had the family converted recently?
Mrs VS
the couple was targeted in Kenya because of their opposition to female genital mutilation.

I have been targeted in FR because of my opposition to female OR MALE genital mutilation. I am also opposed to rap “music”, tattoos, piercing, and people whose only topic of conversation is sports.
She didn’t “slip” into this country. She came in through a church group with the appropriate paperwork and was waiting on her application for permanent residency.
I expect that church groups offered her help, but many Kenyan’s are reasonably well educated and very hard working. We have several families in our neighborhood which is equivalent to the one pictured. They are all working and going to school and taking advantage of the opportunities available to them in America.
They have had some heart stopping experiences in their country. While mutiliation practice has been outlawed, it means little in some areas of that country. Government control does not extend to all areas of Kenya. The country is not as lawful and peaceful and regulated as you may think.
Religion of Peace (adopted from George W. Bush’s statement about that murderous cult after 911). See Also, Religion of Pieces.

I have to deal with a number of moonbats and they know I voted for GW twice. They like to tell me that Bush lies and my usual answer is, “you’re right, I saw him on TV saying that Islam is a religion of peace and nobody has ever told a bigger lie than that”. That usually leaves them looking dumbstruck and unable to reply.
having traveled into a goodly number of what we call third-world countries in the 60’s and 70’s, I can assure you there are few citizens of those countries who don’t dream of moving to the US.
Yes, with all our “hate America’ rhetoric, the US is the place of choice for all of them - rich and poor. And many come up with all sorts of devious ways to make it happen.
Exceprts from the local paper:
Hunt on for leads in murders
By Ashley Hungerford
Marietta Daily Journal Staff Writer
“The three women were found dead in their ranch-style home at 4789 Country Cove Way off Shipp Road north of Florence Road and C.H. James Parkway Wednesday morning. Ms. Kuria’s son, Jeremy Kuria, 7, and Peter Thande, a 10-year-old cousin, were found in the home unconscious, but alive.
They were taken to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite, where Jeremy remains in critical condition while Peter was reported in fair condition on Friday.”
and
“Kuck said he has spoken with Cobb police and shared all his case information with them to help “catch whoever committed this heinous crime.”
Pierce would not comment specifically when asked if Ms. Kuria’s fear of female circumcision of her daughters played a role in Wednesday’s murders.”

I think you might have jumped to the wrong conclusion. The predominant religion in Kenya is Episcopalian. Fewer than 10 percent of Kenyans are Muslim. And Muslims don’t name their kids Isabela and Annabelle. I suspect the original asylum claim was bogus. When we grant asylum to people without investigating their claims thoroughly, we are inviting blood feuds from Africa and elsewhere onto our own soil.
Kenya was a colony of the old British Empire and therefore the Church of England was predominant. Today the church in Kenya is a Province of the Anglican Communion as are each of the old colonies. Of course, American missionaries played a significant role in bringing Christ to the hinterlands. Today, Africans are sending missionaries to America where the Episcopal church (also a Province of the Anglicans)has lost its way.
So take it up with the writer of the story, he said she had applied for political asylum, He also stated that it was turned down. Just because some Jake leg church group was involved trying to go around the immigration laws means nothing.
They are no better than the ones slipping people across the southern boarder. Other than they think they are above the law because they are good.
That is why her bogus application for asylum was turned down.
Female circumcision is an African custom not a Muslim custom...many of the Arabs in northern Africa adopted this custom but it is not practised in the Middle East as far as I know. (They just kill grown women for the sake of family honor if they so much as look at a man without daddy and brother’s approval...so much more enlightened.)
