ASSUMING she's for real, "fun n serious" desperately needs to get the Hades away from DU and other Lib/Prog political discussion situations and get out and about normal people in non-political contexts! Maybe find a runner/walker group at Fleet Feet or Road Runner Sports. Something that gets her out and about, among normal people not talking politics, DU-folk and other Libs/Progs are trolling and exploiting fear, especially among ethnic and religious minorities.
Stuff like this have me doubting she's for real:
... my husband is white ... My 13 year old son is Arab with a Muslim name.
... my husband is white, my father was white ... Was this white man going to take my child into the woods and kill him?
Is he a gun tooting red neck?
I live in Portland OR now and still have people telling me to SPEAK ENGLISH when I am talking in Spanish with my mom in public.
OK, her Dad's "white". Her husband's "white". How did she come to be afraid of "white" people when she is one and married one?
She thinks there are "gun tooting
(or toting) red necks" in Lib/Prog Portland? Portland is almost like
SF-on-the-Columbia! Were it not for Portland, OR would probably by a "red" state!
As for people asking her to speak English.that is really non-credible. I'm confident that I could walk about a reasonably busy mall in Portland or sit in its food court, listening to people converse around me, and hear 4 or more languages spoken in addition to English (Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish, Hindi, Korean, Japanese, Tagalog, and Vietnamese are possibilities that come to mind very quickly!).
