Somebody didn't get the "religion of peace" memo again.

Iranian student shot in Houston

Quote
Bagherzadeh was of Iranian descent and was outspoken in promoting Iranian women's rights and criticizing the Iranian government, according to interviews she had done with the Houston Chronicle.

Photos and video from the newspaper's website show Bagherzadeh participating in a 2010 protest calling for a regime change in Iran. At the time, she requested that her name not be used in the video because she was afraid of persecution, according to the Houston Chronicle.

"It's not believed that she was targeted because of her ethnicity or because she was an activist," Houston Police Department spokesman Victor Senties told ABCNews.com.

Police don't currently believe her death was related to her activism, but the death is mysterious. Bagherzadeh's cell phone and purse were still inside.

WTF? It wasn't a robbery but they DON'T think it was because of her activism. Just a random drive-by. Move along. Nothing to see here.

Two worlds collide.


30-year-old Gelareh Bagherzadeh was studying molecular genetic technology at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.


Houston is a libertine pizol sustained only by the giant inertia
created by oil and mercantile barons from the 19th through
the mid 20th century.  Those men are dead and Houston will
follow.

If it wasn't so grave, it would be almost comical how desperately the authorities and the media rush to look at every motivation but Islam when Islamists are involved in violence.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
