Take Holly Fisher of Charleston, WV, for example (please!). Fisher, Holly Hobby Lobby on Twitter, has been drawing a bit of attention with a picture she posted after she was criticized for not having enough guns, flags, or JESUS in her Hobby Lobby picture she took in response to Bristol Palins failed Hobby Lobby Love Twitter campaign, in which the daughter of half-wit, half-term former Governor Sarah Palin encouraged people to take photographs of themselves shopping at the anti-womens rights craft chain.
Since she did not appear extremist enough, Holly amped up the jihad a bit with a new photo:
Her new photo has everythingan unnecessarily dangerous weapon being carried around in public, the Bible, and, of course, a flag within which she can wrap her bigotry and hatred.
Where have we seen this before? Oh! Yes!

(478 posts)that she is also against have one dime of her taxes if she pay any being spent helping out the children who are born to people who are having financial trouble. That seem to be the norm for the so called pro lifers who could care less about a child after it is born. Of course if it her then it's a different story after all she is deserving of help just ask her. Pro lifer are anything but pro life they are Americas biggest hypocrites.

(11,841 posts)and then I might make a connection. Hobby Lobby aside, some woman calling for Jihad against pretty much EVERYBODY and this other odd girl are hardly one and the same. And what is she lying about? Does she not believe what she says she believes?
I may laugh at her attention getting, but she's hardly a threat to me or anyone else at this point and its just grasping at straws to compare her to a possible suicide bomber

(11,841 posts)We just had a thread a week ago where several were coming up with ways for Scalia and Thomas to have their hearts explode. I dont like that crap regardless of whose side its on. Its ridiculous. I remember seeing a bumper sticker saying "support bush" with a noose next to it. Really? Hang the president because you dont like his policies? Let the right wingers make themselves look like assholes; I'd prefer it if my side didnt join in. LET them try to impeach Obama! That will almost guarantee that Dems keep the Senate could even re-take the house. They've obviously learned nothing from when they did it to Clinton.

(2,548 posts)Anyone posing with a bible and agun is sending a message. Can you spell crusade? The exact reason the Female Islamic militant is posing is the same as the Christain militant. When religion of any sort trumps rational thought, and evidence based decision making you may find yourself living in a theocracy. And of course you see how well that works in other parts of the world. Faith and religious belief is fine as long as it has no power other than that of personal information. As soon as it acquires societal authority through laws and government support, that society is dead to liberty and freedom. That photo should make Americans head explode, not just "liberals".it is a direct threat to you and your children; from her you accept either the bible or .223 bullet, your choice.

(11,841 posts)Now if she ramps it up and posts a pic of her pointing the gun at a picture of the president, nail her ass.
She has made twitter posts which do display what you question but its all histrionics and hyperbole. While, sadly, that behavior is characteristic of many right wing whack jobs, they aren't alone. I've seen the same level of hysteria and supposition from the left. It all boils down to emotionalism which is a (in my opinion) both a good thing and a failing. It is important to recognize and understand our feelings but at the same time it is equally important to reconcile those feelings with reason and rational thought. Everyone engages in hyperbole and histrionics but for some it is SOP.

(108,980 posts)I don't know what the jihad girl said and I don't care. Her picture speaks volumes, as does Hobby girl's.
They're both carrying an assault weapon, a religious volume, and standing in front of a flag. Classic.
Hobby girl's not a threat to you -- so what? You don't know how much of a threat Jihad girl is to anyone in real life.
7962
(11,841 posts)This other girl is just making light of something many take seriously, but she's hardly a threat to do harm to anyone. So she poses holding a gun. So what.
The other girl is posing in a picture that is generally the type released after the subject has blown themselves up in some sort of attack. Do I KNOW this particular one did that? No. Maybe the author of the article shouldve done a little research on who that woman is and what she was doing.
You guys can keep acting like these two women are the same. Fine. You're ignoring reality. We'll just disagree.

Moostache
(9,897 posts)If I could personally fit her with one that would only go off when she was alone and out of range to harm anyone else, I'd gladly give it to her. That kind of vapid airhead nonsense and utter lack of introspection is the exact reason that so many find "conservatives" flat out offensive at the core level.
The really funny thing about this woman is that she seems to think the men in her life care one way or the other what she has to say. They tolerate this outburst because it makes the focus on them glare a little less brightly, but in due time they'll yell at her to shut up and get back in the kitchen with those damn kids...

RedState Women plan to carry out their mission through a social media messaging strategy. See example above.

freshwest
(53,661 posts)Their belief system demands they have as many children as possible. There will be many more born and they are increasingly hateful ot anyone who does not submit to them and are for civil society. Guns are created for war and killing, and will be employed when they see the time is right to use them.
They believe they can change this nation into what they want by voting, and have proven that. We are being encouraged to not vote. But we cannot stand by and argue over who is the best when we are being confronted with the worst.
At least, those of us who have lost and stand to lose more, can't. Others can say, 'Meh.'
Staying home in 2014 ensures her crowd will determine our future. As if what they did since 2010 was not bad enough for us to wake up. This is the status quo of an unjust order that is sweeping the states, becoming more powerful than government, but can be eliminated by voting, if anyone really cares.
The juxaposition of the second woman with her gun and book is perfect, just the way I've always seen it. Don't be fooled by a brand name, that's the team jersey worn by people who are supporting true authoritarian rule. The pictures in the OP are living proof and those of us who don't want to live in a theocracy had better vote to win.

(1 post)Well, seeing as how Miss Holly already has three children before she turned 28 years old, and is living on the government dole, I figure it'll only be another year or so before she's arrested in connection with a clinic bombing or caught brandishing her semi-auto rifle at an OB/BYN.
Why bother paying out all of her Section 8 Housing and WIC benefits over the next few years?
Let's just skip ahead and put her in prison where she belongs, since acting a fool and writing checks with your mouth that you can't cash with your ass is going to land you there sooner or later.
