FARGO A white woman from Mapleton, N.D., who was recorded Tuesday, July 25, threatening a group of three Muslim women in the Walmart parking lot on 13th Avenue South, telling them to "go home" and that she would kill them, will lose her job.
Whenever she gets here, she will be let go. said a person at Fargo accounting firm Horab and Wentz, who would only identify himself as one of the firm's partners on Wednesday, July 26.
The man said of Amber Elizabeth Hensley: Her views are not ours." A couple phones could be heard ringing in the background.
Our phone has been ringing this morning hundreds of times. Its ringing right now, the man said. Were the ones getting the brunt of this. No one else is.

(151 posts)Cell phone videos that can help identify these individuals need to go public so they can be shamed and suffer the consequences. This is how we fight back and restore decency to this beleaguered country. Kudos to the firm for firing this nutcase.

Fargo Police Chief David Todd posted a picture Thursday, July 27, of Amber Elizabeth Hensley, Mapleton, N.D., and two of the Somali-American women hugging at the police department. Two days earlier, Hensley was yelling at the women, Were going to kill all ya .Were going to kill every single one of you (expletive) Muslims.
The incident that happened at the Walmart parking lot and then went viral on social media shows we have some things to work on as a community and as individuals, Todd wrote in the post.
Unfortunately, incidents like what happened this week and the social media commentary following it can cause further division and set us back from progress we are trying to make as a community.
The chief arranged the meeting between Hensley and two of the three Somali-American women, sisters Sarah and Leyla Hassan.
He said the women all expressed their sincere regrets, apologies and most importantly -- forgiveness to each other. This process has also allowed them to gain understanding and respect for each other.

(9,808 posts)It's the same sort of BS that elementary schools do, when they force the 60 pound kid in glasses who has had their lunch money stolen for three weeks running to shake hands with the 140 pounder that's a foot taller and running the shakedown.
Note that Hensley is a) named (so gets the attention -- and a lot of support from Les Deplorables) and b) she's the one doing the clutch. The other two women are not participating, they're just standing there, smiling uncomfortably, waiting for it to be over.
