carry, check six often, and always allow plenty of space between the car in front of you. God Bless and good luck.

Does she live in the US? If she is killed in the US, Americans should be very angry about the assassination of a fellow citizen.

I was not aware that an observant Muslim woman was permitted to wear a bikini in public, let alone in a pageant.

From Wikipedia’s article “Apostasy in Islam”:

According to Abdul Rashied Omar, the majority of modern Muslim scholars continue to hold the traditional view that the death penalty for apostasy is required by the two primary sources of Sharia - the Quran and the Hadiths.

Would love to hear how Ms. Fakih was explaining to police how her attacker(s) got all those fatal bullet wounds.

“Well, officer, my new nonmuslim boyfriend took me to the, how you say, pistol shooting range and showed me how to fire a 9 milimeter handgun at a human size target. The more I shot, the easier it got!”

At the time she won the Miss USA title, it was reported that an older sister of her’s had also married a Christian and converted and that one of her uncles had not only converted but become a Maronite priest.

I think she’s safe.

“She wouldn’t be able to do this in most of the Mohammadan-occupied world. The penalty for it is death.”

Anything you do there carries a death penalty. Picking your nose? Off with your head! These savages have grown very tiresome.

Maronites are Catholics — is she becoming a Catholic?

Religion is supposed to define a person. G-d is the Creator, Ruler, and absolute Master of the entire creation and everything (and everyone) in it. The notion that religion is one tiny part of life, or an aspect of ethno-culture, is a lie of the "enlightenment" that no conservative should support.

She can hang out at my house and I’ll protect her. I will also teach her to shoot well.
