Dem Comgressman Andre Carson Calls ISIS 'She" | Call Me Astonished!
/I just wrote this comment on Democratic Indiana Congressman Andre Carson's FB page.
"I was astonished to hear you refer to ISIS as "she" yesterday, in response to a question about John McCain saying Russia is a greater threat than ISIS. You drove a dagger in my heart. Kindly find a gender-neutral way of talking about this savage terrorist organization without making it female. Given the reality of what we've watched on TV, I didn't see women beheading good people or burning people alive. I'm not asking you to use a male pronoun, but gender-neutral ones. You make me wonder how you actually see women when you call ISIS 'she'. I doubt it's a reference to her mythological history. " #RESIST
