How would you expect a journalist to portray an American convicted of providing material support to terrorists while declaring, “violence against institutions was sometimes necessary to fight oppression”?
As a hero, of course.
She’s already a grandmother of 14, a cancer survivor and a former civil rights lawyer who took on radical clients others considered toxic.
…
It was hardly unusual for Stewart to question authority and defend unpopular figures in her three-decade legal career. With an aggressive yet self-effacing courtroom style, she represented Black Panthers, leaders of the 1960s student activist group Weather Underground, a former mob hit man and a man accused of trying to kill nine police officers.As with other clients, she grew close to Abdel-Rahman and watched as he deteriorated mentally and physically through years of solitary confinement — to the point, she says, that she felt compelled to help him speak out.
…
Stewart has drawn comfort from her family, including her six adult children and 14 grandchildren, and enjoyed the backing of other defense lawyers and strangers who see her case as a symptom of intolerant times. There have been hundreds of letters of support and a series of rallies.Her supporters see her case as “another affront to the constitution,” she said. “They want to live in a free society.”
I think the operative word here is “live”. They want to live. No matter how you wish to portray her, she’s still an American citizen who helped a convicted terrorist communicate with his terrorist followers and incite violence against the United States. Pro-creating and support from anarchists does not mitigate her crime against this country. The MSM is portraying her as a sweet little grandma when they should be portraying her more like the wolf.
UPDATE:
28 months. That’s all she got. The jihadis will be happy.
Others:
Michelle says she deserves the maximum sentence. I agree.
