Representative Peter King began hearings on the radicalization of Muslims in the United States last month. Today he is receiving bloody packages and threatening letters in the mail.
It has been confirmed that Rep. King received a bloody pig's foot and a derogatory letter today. In the letter, there contained anti-Semitic ramblings and references to King's hearings.
Who and why the letter was sent can only be speculated. However, with the evidence, it appears that a Muslim person upset with the hearings most likely sent the letter and pig's foot, as pork is forbidden in Islam and is thus considered insulting.
Ibrahim Hooper, National Communications Director for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, however, sees it differently. "My guess is it was an anti-Muslim bigot, and bigots not being brain surgeons they probably got their signals crossed," he said.
The package, addressed to King, was intercepted before it reached the Representative. The Capital Hill police have promised an "open investigation."

I’ve got a $1,000 says it’s a leftist plant. When will these commies ever learn. We have the guns. They have stupidity. We win
Gosh, the religion of peace is so...peaceful.
“”My guess is it was an anti-Muslim bigot, and bigots not being brain surgeons they probably got their signals crossed,” he said.” He being Ibrahim Hooper, National Communications Director for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, (who) sees it differently.
Oh, well of course, go with the least logical explanation ... speaking of not being a brain surgeon.
FAIL all around since I don’t believe Peter King is a member of a group that would cause him to suffer an attack of the vapors if he found himself in the presence of - gasp - a pig’s foot.
