Using the precedent set in Deerborn recently, she should not be allowed to offend Muslims. The peaceful muslims have every right to be violent once they are offended, so any hint at offending them should be met with jail time.

That may be true in other states such as Michigan, but in So Dakota there is still an element of the "wild west". I would not be surprised of some of these men are literally run out of town, or even found in a snow drift with a 'suicide note' pinned to their shirt.

I'm not advocating violence (disclaimer to avoid getting this post pulled), but this behavior won't stand in SD, even a 'liberal' town like SF or Aberdeen.

I suggest that this former nun get a carry permit and spend some time at the range with her new concealed carry.

South Dakota is an as issue state, most people have CCW and if they don’t it is very easy to get one.

I’m sure there is a posse of redblooded South Dakotans ready and willing to come to the aid of this good woman.

Not that I’m advocating any kind of violence, or anything.

These two pictures have the exact same stone in them. I am beginning to doubt this article.

Apparently people are more upset that the author is using over the top hyperbole than the fact that the woman is being targeted with intimidation tactics by radical muzzies.

Kind of mind boggling, isn't it?

It’s not exactly the kind of stoning where they got her personally. They threw rocks through the windows of her house, which is technically better, but totally and completely unacceptable in this great country of ours.

This isn’t the stinkin’ Middle East. If they don’t like freedom of religion, they need to go back to where they came from where there isn’t any.

OTOH, on the bright side, it isn’t going to look good for the muzzies. Maybe some use can be made of it to wake more people up about islam before it’s too late.

Sounds fair to me, I haven’t been in Texas since 1962 but if I come back it certainly won’t be for the purpose of trying to intimidate you.

UPDATED EDITOR’S NOTE AT 7:43 EDT ON 4/25: A previous version of the title to this article was perhaps misleading, so it has been changed/updated. Further, as a reader pointed out below, we are aware that the two stones supposedly thrown on separate days bear a striking resemblance. However, Ms. Johnson personally stands by her statement that those are 2 separate rocks pictured above, a story corroborated by multiple other sources to Dr. Swier. As a result, this will likely constitute the final update to this story, one which will remain featured on this site.

Good catch.

I haven't seen any updates on this story since this thread.

Well, if she can produce BOTH stones, that would answer the question.

Or rocks, really.

Questions....

If the rocks went though the windows, shattering glass, would the glass not likely have gone as far as the rock? Why is there none in the pictures? Either of them.

And would not the rock on the steps have bounced all the way down to the bottom landing? I would expect the rock to have hit the riser and bounced back towards the front of the house. It couldn’t have just landed there and stayed where it landed.

And they’re both resting on the same side, with the same side up.

If they can place both stones on the carpet in full light and take a picture of them together then I'll back off and retract my statement where I expressed doubt about the article. Until then, my impression is that someone is lying.

As far as the glass, no it would not have carried as far as the rock. Different weight and mass. It's possible the rock was deflected or ricocheted off of something else in its flight path thereby lowering its forward velocity.

Yeah, I know it’s possible, but in BOTH pictures? Especially in the one on the stairs. The rock would have bounced back down the stairs and landed in the glass that didn’t travel as far.

I’ve dropped stuff on the stairs and except for laundry, which eventually gets stuck on the carpet somewhere, it almost always makes it all the way down, and that’s just from dropping, not from being thrown from the front of the stairs where it could very likely hit the riser.

And I’ve dropped enough dishes and classes in my day and when glass breaks, it’s EVERYWHERE.

The rock’s forward velocity would be seriously reduced in going through the window. I don’t think it would be so likely to have traveled a huge distance past the glass.

Anyway, I presume that when these events happened, she filed a police report and there are photos showing the scene and the broken windows.

I understand your skepticism. We will just have to wait and see if you are vindicated. Let me know if you find out.
