Because they said he could do community service.
What?
He cleaned graffiti and picked up garbage and went to a counselor.

Colorado, ihatesu.
He would continue to be mocked for his faith, but would be villified by so many more for his daring to rub Islam in America’s face.

Thank you!
We often stay at the Waldorf Madeleine. Not related to the Astoria chain, it is a cute little boutique hotel right behind the Madeleine, so it’s within easy walking distance of a ton of sites, food and metro stops.
Women and the Arab Spring →
Hey all, back from a brief Tumlr hiatus. Had an opportunity to write a piece on some of the women behind the Arab Spring, though, which was fun. Enough material there for a book of its own, which better minds than I will likely run with.
