She seems nice.
Kosovo Online: Sanija Ameti, a councilwoman from Zurich’s Liberal Green Party and originally from Kosovo, found herself at the center of a scandal after posting on social media a video of herself shooting at an image of the Virgin Mary holding Jesus Christ.
Following this shocking post, Ameti was met with a wave of criticism.
She had posted a photo showing her shooting at an image, which local media reports claim is a reproduction by a medieval Italian artist, taken from an illustrated catalog.
After a series of negative reactions, Sanija Ameti removed the post and apologized.
She explained that she had used the image from the catalog because it had been “the right size and visible enough” to serve as a target.
“I didn’t pay attention to the content of the image,” Sanija Ameti claimed, acknowledging that it was wrong and calling her actions “absolutely foolish.”
Several conservative politicians condemned Ameti’s actions and called for her resignation. Some accused her of inciting hatred against Christians and threatened to take legal action.
Among them was Nicolas Rimoldi, president of the Mass-Voll movement. He announced his intention to file a criminal complaint against Ameti, accusing her of disturbing religious freedom. According to Swiss law, anyone who publicly insults or mocks the religious beliefs of others or “attacks” religious objects can be fined.
Whoops! That law was only intended to punish people who offended Muslims, not those icky Christians, right? I love how she posted images of herself doing this and then feigned to be shocked when Christians were offended. She claimed to have not paid any attention at all to the image on the targets. Ugh. This is how stupid they are and how stupid they think you are.
Look, if this is one of those countries that are throwing Christians in jail for reading Scripture passages out loud to Muslims or gay pride parades then toss her A$$ in jail. I’m not for that kind of thing but if those are the rules, at least let’s have both sides be forced to play by them, right?
