She's president of Muslim Women of the Carolinas organization.

She's also an activist that likes to "rock the boat".

Muslim Women Activists in North America - University of Texas Press


She wasn't thrown out for "being Muslim".
If she and her partner had sat down like everyone else then nothing would have happened.
They were allowed to go to the event. If it were a "No Muslims allowed" then they would have been stopped at the door.

BLM protesters were also removed from a Trump event.

Now the same happened at a Bernie Sanders event (BLM protesters). Bernie just ceded the mic and walked away and never gave his speech.

Whether she belonged there or not, what happened to her just further alienates rational people from the Trump campaign.

how she was "harassed"? nobody knows what was said towards her.


The Jewish star was offensive too many in the crowd comparing the U.S.A to Nazi Germany and free speech goes both ways.

I would have said something to her while she was walking out.....my freedom of speech of what think of her stunt.



Sorry liberals, freedom of speech is NOT exclusive to your causes and opinions.



What she did was offensive as an American and Trump supporters have every right to let her know about it...FREE SPEECH.

The fact that this muslim woman was wearing a yellow star like a Jew in Nazi Germany is disgusting. How dare her compare her situation to what happened to those poor Jews. Give me a break. I'm glad she got thrown out. Typical muslim causing trouble.

Yes, I know what the Star of David looks like. That's how I know it has six points.

My point is that one has the right to be outraged by anything, just make sure you are correct and informed with what you say with that outrage. Otherwise the discussion turns toward the misinformation rather than the original intent.

She is making a point that if Trump had his way, Muslims would be rounded up in America and either deported or shot. She is also using her 1st Amendment rights which Trump and his supporters apparently do not like.

People waited hours in line to get in to see Trump. Most of those were supporters. They did not want to see some activist ruining their view or causing disturbances at their candidates rally. They wanted to enjoy Trump's speech and that woman and her companion were determined to ruin it for them. Small wonder the crowd was not happy with them.

I'm pretty sick of all these protesters.....if you don't like Trump, don't vote for him. Simple as that. It's the same with all the Trump bashing in the media and even here at CD. Do they honestly think they are going to change a Trump supporter's mind about voting for him? I don't think so.

If anyone is fomenting hate and divisiveness, it's the Trump bashers for focusing on every small detail they can spin into a negative.

I get that's she TRYING to make a point, but a yellow Star of David? seriously? thanks for spitting on the graves of 6 million Jews murdered and tortured by the Nazi's
Many Muslims have died these last 15 years.... perhaps she is trying to draw attention to that fact.

She's comparing her experience to the Jews during ww2. In all fairness, i can understand. But what she is doing is highly insensitive.

If she wants others to show compassion to her, then she shouldn't be comparing her experience or the Muslim experiences to the Jews. Not even close.

lets cut the B.S. and stop making this woman into a victim.

She stood up in a rally with a Jewish star comparing the U.S.A as a German Nazi Concentration camp.....that is offensive to a lot of people in the rally and she was asked to leave.....nothing wrong with that.

Freedom of speech goes both ways. Trump supporters had every right to tell her that what she did is stupid and ignorant.


its Muslims NATIONS that are hostile to Israel and Jews.....why doesn't she go to the Arab Countries embassies and protest those countries.
