Rock your red, white and blue, Saba! - Total Badass Goes On Fox News In Patriotic Hijab [View all]



Kelly opened the discussion by talking about our First Amendment rights. “We have freedom of speech, we have freedom of religion," she said. "And we’re opening up a very dangerous door if we get the government getting to go into a religious institution and decide what amounts to hate speech.”

Pearson then passionately listed followers of the Islamic faith who were responsible for violence in the past, in an attempt to prove her point that all Muslims are capable of and responsible for such behavior. (That logic would suggest that all Catholic churches should've been shut down after the Boston Globe investigation of church sex abuse in 2002, which found thousands of people who were assaulted by members of the clergy.)

After Kelly mentioned the "hotbed" of political activity that seemingly goes on in mosques, Ahmed, who remains incredibly poised the entire time, simply responded: “Megyn, we go to the mosque to pray.”

Rock your red, white and blue, Saba. You more than deserve to.
