No True Scotsman is a logical fallacy by which an individual attempts to avoid being associated with an unpleasant act by asserting that no true member of the group they belong to would do such a thing. Instead of acknowledging that some members of a group have undesirable characteristics, the fallacy tries to redefine the group to exclude them.

Thanks for posting this definition.
Interesting that Jackson arrogates to herself the right to decide who is and is not a “true Muslim.” The actual Muslims involved apparently aren’t capable of making such choices.
You know, I could make similar claims about men who murder and rape. They aren’t “really men” by my definition, so men don’t commit such acts.
