Hallandale panel condemns commissioner's anti-Muslim comments

[Scurrilous]

Anabelle Lima-Taub said Muslim congresswoman could 'blow up Capitol Hill'

<snip>

"The Hallandale Beach City Commission passed a resolution condemning recent comments by Commissioner Anabelle Lima-Taub on Wednesday. Protesters packed the panel's first meeting since Lima-Taub became embroiled in a national controversy after she said a Muslim congresswoman could "become a martyr and blow up Capitol Hill."

The commission stopped short of censuring Lima-Taub, but it also passed a resolution requiring racial sensitivity training for city leaders.

Hours before the meeting, more than 200 protesters for and against Lima-Taub had already gathered outside Hallandale Beach City Hall. When Lima-Taub entered the packed commission meeting room her supporters cheered.

Lima-Taub made a statement about the controversy at the meeting, saying she felt "politically raped" and "feared for her life" and didn't know how much time she had left on this earth."
