LILBURN — A Lilburn woman said her family was threatened and harassed as they traveled home from a City Council meeting about a controversial mosque.

Janie Hood, whose family once farmed the area where the mosque was proposed, said “Middle Eastern” men who seemed to be associated with the congregation “boxed” her daughter’s car in as they traveled down U.S. Highway 29 on Wednesday night. Click here to find out more!

She said the men began calling threats out their windows and drove erratically, keeping her daughter from turning off the highway from the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center in Lawrenceville, where the meeting was held, until Lilburn police stopped them inside the city limits.

Hood had spoken at an earlier hearing on the issue, but she said she did not know if the men targeted her because she wore a red shirt to express her opposition to the proposal, which was defeated by the council Wednesday.

“It put me, it put my two grandchildren and it put my daughter in danger,” she said. “They were trying to hurt us.”

Muzzies in the US emboldened by having one of theirs as Prez. Hasan shooting has egged them on firther. That was a major win for them (pun intended) as they were able to infiltrate our military as we stood by and watched in political correctness. Expect things to get worse.

Even more of a reason to not allow a mosque. It is truly sad that in this day and age, one must bring weapons to town meetings of any sort.

Identify the victim, don't identify the perps. Just great.

The monks in Britain had a cool response when the Vikings invaded. The would flay the skin of any Vik unfortunate to be captured and nail it to the door of the monastery.

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

It is more than obvious that the city council made the right decision.

The coward azz muzzies don’t wanna start that s#it here. It’s deer season. There’s more scoped, sighted, rifles in the metro Atl than in the USMC.

Right now, it wouldn’t take much. Much at all.
