Final week, we reported an incident wherein Perry Greene, the ex-husband of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, relentlessly harassed a gaggle of Muslim girls who have been making an attempt their best possible to thoughts their very own enterprise. Both Perry didn’t understand he was being recorded that day within the mall car parking zone in Alpharetta, Ga., or he didn’t understand his public present of extra-caucasified bigotry would end result within the public shaming that prompted his weak public apology 4 days later. Nicely, it seems the ex-husband of that loopy racist girl in Congress not solely needed to apologize to the ladies he verbally abused at size, however he needed to pay out $75,000 to the ladies to settle a declare they filed in opposition to him.
In response to Fox 5, the three girls, who haven’t been recognized by their full names publicly, appeared with their attorneys for a information convention in Johns Creek Monday, the place they formally accepted Greene’s apology and stated they might donate the settlement cash he paid to a neighborhood mosque.
“At the moment, I need to inform Mr. Greene that we settle for his apology, and we hope that he’ll proceed to deal with others with equity, respect, equality and dignity,” one among them stated.
“We got here right here simply to get pleasure from some desserts,” recalled one of many girls, who was recognized by her first identify, Nesrine. “It was time for one of many prayers to finish, so we wished to verify we reached it. We set our carpet up, our prayer rug, proper subsequent to our automotive in an empty parking spot tucked away within the nook.”
They stated that after the video footage of him harassing the group for praying, sporting Muslim garb and customarily simply present went viral, and earlier than he issued the general public apology, Greene reached out to them in personal to supply his humble apology. Apparently, none of that grovelling for forgiveness saved Greene from having to pay out a hefty sum for his she-Klan-igans — and we should always love that for him.
In spite of everything, it isn’t possible that Greene’s angle in direction of folks of the Islamic religion modified as soon as he noticed footage of himself repeatedly telling these girls, who’re from the U.S., that they need to “return to your nation” as a result of “we don’t need any Muslims.” He’s not the Islamaphobic Grinch whose coronary heart grew three sizes the day his hate speech went viral. What occurred is that Perry went from relentlessly accosting a random group of Muslims for no discernable purpose exterior of his hatred for Muslims to shilling out $75,000 that can possible go to protecting a mosque’s lights on — all as a result of he couldn’t preserve his bigotry to himself for the brief interval it took him to drive by a gaggle of Muslims who have been paying him no thoughts.
This story serves as a not-so-friendly reminder to bigots that minding your corporation and protecting your hate to yourselves are issues you are able to do 100% freed from cost.
