Yes, I always do what I'm told, good doggie gets his biscuit afterall. Way to go use a completely illogical path to leap from A to Q. Really, bravo!
Put it this way, if a MOD here at CAG said "hey dial it back a bit or this is the result", do you acquiesce or continue despite your protest to get the resulting punishment? It's kind of a duh situation.
Also, the article wasn't "just a couple of local dudes" saying that it's ok to stand, it was scholars of the faith in question.
She can wear her scarf and outfit in the court but she had it removed while in jail.
At first glance, it looks like a tough, uphill slog for two local Somali women accused of handling financing for al-Shabab fighters. The AP’s Amy Forliti reports: “One of two Minnesota women accused of funneling money to a terrorist group in Somalia
allegedly told potential donors to ignore charities and focus on ‘the jihad’ and helped finance local Somali men's travel to their war-torn homeland to fight, prosecutors alleged in court filings. The details hint at evidence the government claims it has against Amina Farah Ali, who is scheduled to stand trial Monday on multiple terror charges. Prosecutors said Ali, 35, and her co-defendant, 64-year-old Hawo Mohamed Hassan, were part of a ‘deadly pipeline’ that routed money and fighters from the U.S. to Somalia. The women, both U.S. citizens of Somali descent, were among 20 people charged in Minnesota's long-running federal investigations into recruiting and financing for al-Shabab

Amina Ali says her veil and clothing were forcibly removed
after she refused to disrobe in the Sherburne County Jail.
Ali says jail officials stepped on her and twisted her arms. She says she asked for medical attention and none was given.
Thomas Volk, spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service in Minnesota, said female sheriff's deputies were called on to handle the situation. Volk said Ali then complied. He said no force was used.
So she claims abuse but provides no evidence (stepped on and arms twisted? that'll leave a mark) and aside from from saying that it happened hasn't pursued any avenue of legal action based on her claims.
Face it dude, she's a pain in the ass. You can play the "we're the bad guy" card all you want, but this lady is a pain in the ass.
