In North Richland Hills, a Tea Party’s manners are questioned after insulting Muslim woman employee
The NE Tarrant Tea Party is really sorry for whatever happened in North Richland Hills (a Fort Worth suburb).
That much we know. We don’t know exactly what one meeting attendee said about a young Muslim city employee’s hijab, only that city supervisors described the remark as “hateful” and “derogatory.”
Oh: We also know the Grapevine-based group was warned not to let it happen again, and sent profuse apologies, but then claimed the offender only meant to “share her faith.”
In an online newsletter, Tea Party President Julie White McCarty, an adviser to Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, called the city employee a “lost soul” who should “learn about Jesus.”
