Holly Fisher, a conservative Christian, has been getting insane amounts of attention recently by trolling liberals on social media over the Supreme Courts Hobby Lobby decision. Unfortunately, she tried to up the ante one too many times and now she has unintentionally become the living symbol of how fundamentalism, no matter in what religion, looks disturbingly similar.
After gaining internet fame for posing for a conservative hat trick by standing in front of a Hobby Lobby wearing a pro-life t-shirt and drinking out of a Chick-fil-a cup, Fisher wanted to find her next big political statement. Fishers fans had apparently been telling her that just standing in front of Hobby Lobby wasnt good enough. The astute patriots noted that the most important aspects of being an American guns, the Bible and the American flag were conspicuously absent. Assuming she could get a further rise out of the liberals she hates so much, Fisher quickly tweeted a new photo to prove just how patriotic she was.
While many of her followers fawned over the latest suck it, Liberals! tweet, one user noticed how creepy the photo was if you stopped to think about it.
This prompted someone to post the obvious comparison: Fishers picture next to an almost identical picture of a young woman holding a similar rifle, in front of a Islamic flag and clutching the Quran. Even their crooked smiles are exactly the same. Its uncanny.

I can't see this enough.
