  2. I’m sure her family and friends are super proud. Unfortunate for her kids, her church, and the school. That’s a terrible reflection on all of them. One of the things people forget is the badging they put on their vehicles. If you have a church, school, or other organization sticker on your car, and you don’t know how to behave in public, you have to know you are damaging their image concurrently with your own.

    1. It would be difficult to damage the reputation to churches, given all the horrible things churches have done to people, particularly children. Churches already have bad reps.

    NB: she is a Catholic but the same applies.

      1. That would be my guess, just for the fact that the media isn’t saying. Plus her uppity, elite, better-than-you attitude reeks of democrat.

      3. She clearly doesn’t want them here so therefore she’s not a Dem. Remember you people don’t want brown people here so therefore she’s a Republican. I mean, not just a Republican but a MAGA cultist republican!

      1. Please educate yourself and stay away from the propaganda out there stating lies. Look at the real news that our country has always had. Don’t be a cultist, a bully, hateful, liar, racist. Feel sorry for you cult members of MAGA/Cult.

  8. She is an embarrassment to her dead husband, her sons, her workplace, their schools, her parish, and her work. She is what happens when you mix being a mean drunk, racism, a lack of self control, with guns and self-entitlement. She did more damage to herself than she did on those very literate, capable women, whom she tried to attack.

  10. Most Democrats are kind, working for the people. Look at what’s going on right now where the Republicans, since they lost big in 2020, have to retaliate by bullying and lying about the election because they lost. This woman is one of those bullies; obviously. See the facts. The police have. These indian women were minding their own business and this crazy, racist woman attacked the. Thank goodness for cell phones.

  13. I don’t care what nationality she claims to be, what political party she claims. What religion she practices. All I SEE IS A RACIST BIT*H.

    The Rest of the world sees Americans as tribal waring, gang affiliated, intolerante thugs that carry enough weapons to destroy each other.

    Democrats and Republicans might as well be considered street gangs battling over turff wearing there stupid caps and carrying their colors.

    We lost sight of our true enemies and are living in chaos.
    “In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity”. (Art of War).

    “Yet, we must remember that even White privilege is not distributed evenly among Whites. Many White people never get a piece of the pie. This fact, sadly, instead of making them unite with other marginalized and oppressed American employees, it makes them unload their rage and disappointment on the already suffering low-income, refugee, or poor ethnicities, accusing them of ‘stealing our jobs’, or ‘destroying our country and values’. In doing so, they miss the chance of working together with a significant number of allies for real change. Furthermore, they vote for and side with their oppressors thinking that voting for racist and supremacist candidates will change this ugly reality. What they fail to realize is that politics is literally a nasty business that is fed by the masses’ hatred and, once in power, that business never thrives by changing the way the business is done. If all these supposed problems are solved, where will future politicians get their fodder to feed hatred to masses who will bring them to power?
