Va. woman has no regrets over role in burial
DOSWELL, Va. (AP) - The Virginia woman whose actions led to Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev being buried about 30 miles north of her Richmond home said the angry backlash from local officials, some cemetery neighbors and online critics has been unpleasant, but she has no regrets.
“I can’t pretend it’s not difficult to be reviled and maligned,” Martha Mullen told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Friday. “But any time you can reach across the divide and work with people that are not like you, that’s what God calls us to do.”
Tsarnaev, 26, was quietly buried Thursday at a small Islamic cemetery in rural Caroline County. His body had remained at a Worcester, Mass., funeral parlor since he was killed April 19 in a gunfight with police, days after the bombings that killed three and injured more than 260 in downtown Boston. Cemeteries in Massachusetts and several other states refused to accept the remains. With costs to protect the funeral home mounting, Worcester police appealed for help finding a place to bury Tsarnaev.
Mullen said she was at a Starbucks when she heard a radio news report about the difficulty finding a burial spot for Tsarnaev. SOURCE
Well Martha, don’t you look ever so wonderful with that star in YOUR crown? Was that Starbucks one of the locations that said they didn’t want ANY business from folks that believe in *traditional marriage*? I’m guessing that there is a Liberal tilt in your head and I am going to venture a guess and say that you’d be OK with non-traditional.
I don’t suppose Martha, sweet, kind Martha realizes that this Muslim bastard Tsarnaev would just as soon kill her as to look at her if he was still alive.
So Mullen, a mental health counselor in private practice and a graduate of United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio, sent emails to various faith organizations to see what could be done. She heard back from Islamic Funeral Services of Virginia, which arranged for a funeral plot at the Al-Barzakh cemetery. “It was an interfaith effort,” she said.
Martha, dear, sweet, GAWD loving Martha, and her interfaith efforts, and people like them, are the reason I walked away from organized *religion* many years ago. I seriously got tired of hearing the hypocrisy and all around BS.
“But you have to turn the other cheek Brother Fred” they would say.
Do you know what you get when you turn the other cheek?
You get TWO sore cheeks, THAT is what you get, and Brother Fred doesn’t play well with those that would slap him in the face or blow him up. I’m just kind of *funny* that way.
Mullen, a member of the United Methodist Church, said she was motivated by her own faith and that she had the full support of her pastor.
Admittedly, I don’t know a lot about the Methodist Church, but what I do know it that every time I have heard something in the news about a Methodist Church it was because it was connected to Islam and/or was pandering to Muslims.
No? That can’t be right you say?
Well, the story of dear, sweet Martha and her interfaith group, and her being a Methodist and having done this with the full support of her Methodist pastor speaks otherwise, don’t you think?
And then there is this: Methodist minister observes Ramadan in solidarity with Muslims.
Now it just so happens that this Methodist minister was doing his *solidarity* thing right here in Rowlett, TX. and I took the good Rev. Dr. Wes Magruder to task in the post linked above.
Recently I was told that Magruder had left Rowlett, and quite frankly, I see that as NO loss to this city or the Christian faith.
All over this nation Muslims try to pass themselves off as *All-American* citizens that love America and ask, “Can’t we all just get along?” and my answer to that is NO, we can’t. Your Quran instructs you to lie to the infidel in order to gain his trust, and then you are to lop his head off if he doesn’t become a convert to Islam or pay Jizya tax.
Here is the bottom line for me; if you’re sucking up to Islam, SCREW YOU!
If you’re a Muslim in America and you’re trying to make us believe that you and yours are a *religion of peace*, you’re a LIAR, SCREW YOU!
If you’re a Liberal mental health counselor that sucks up to Islam, SCREW YOU, get some mental health help for yourself.
If you’re a Liberal Methodist minister, say someone named Rev. Dr. Wes Magruder for instance, or someone similar to Magruder, and you’re sucking up to Islam as opposed to telling the truth, SCREW YOU too!
Obama and the Libtards may not be at war with these cretins, but I AM!
Fred, you are right again. Islam is evil. The Koran sez it is ok to lie and deceive Infidels to achieve your goal-the goal is coversion to Islam or death. In their hearts in my opinion they want us all to convert or die.
Fully agreed Dick, but these Libtards that suck up to Islam are just as bad… Deceivers are wrong, no matter who they are, and if these Libtard *Christians* think people like ME are going to fall for their *Islam is peaceful* bullshit, they need to think again..
“I can’t pretend it’s not difficult to be reviled and maligned,” Martha Mullen told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Friday.”
No ma’am. Maligned, no.
Reviled: YES.
Decisions have consequences. God said one should be considerate. On the other hand, God didn’t say one must be stupid. He provided us with Free Will and you have utilized yours.

In interfaith effort? It was just her and Muslims. She’s trying to make it sound like she had all kinds of support. She says her pastor supports so let’s see if her pastor issues a statement of support.
I wonder who’s going to pay for security at the cemetery as this grave will require 24/7 surveillance.
Well, this is just MY opinion but I’m pretty sure that Martha, dear, sweet, let’s all get along Martha is a flaming Libtard…
A nice snarky post. Well deserved.
Martha you’re a boofhead…
At least I’ll know where to go to relieve the lizard or to drop some azz….
And the bastard bomber lies facing Mecca. They should have cremated him in Boston and thrown the ashes in the landfill.
Hgpsurf, cremation is kinda high-falutin’, isn’t it? I say, what’s good for bin Laden is good for the followers. Couple of cinder blocks, little bit of wire, and a shove out the side door over the deepest chasm you can find underwater. Preferably with some chum and into a circling school of sharks.
Provided the sharks will eat them - I understand there could be some professional courtesy going on there …
And Dear, Sweet Martha? Never dealt with terrorists before, have you?
Personally, I would have donated a hole to bury the bastard IF I could dictate the way it was filled once he was in it…
Layers of PIG GUTS would be MY choice… But I am NOT wasting BACON, Sausage or Ham on him… Guts and blood, that oughta do it!
Nah, Fred, I would have simply fed HIM to the hogs.
Perfect.

All muslims are terrorists.
Maybe not tomorrow, but in your lifetime,,,yes.
We ave lost too many Americans being killed by muslimes!
Deport them all.
Don’t get me started. Any one pandering to those practicing Islam will suffer a backlash because their Quran is not honorable as they say it is. To any one, read the book “Understanding Radical Islam”.
