Take Them Apples, Mohammed

When Chesapeake School Board Chairwoman Christie New Craig shared a provocative political cartoon to her personal Facebook page last month, Muslims in her state of Virginia immediately used it as an opportunity to complain about racism, discrimination and Islamophobia.
“Muslims hate pork, beer, dogs, bikinis, Jesus, and freedom of speech,” the cartoon read. “My question is, what the hell do they come to America for?!”
When questioned by reporters at The Virginian-Pilot, Craig maintained that she did not share the cartoon “maliciously.”
