Oh, I'll agree with you on parents defending their children. I see that almost every day when some overzealous media person stuffs their microphone in a grieving mother's face just to insure their spot on the nightly news.
But the comment about not caring whether she dies or her younger son dies; that's not common. Then there's the Allahu Akbar comment.
But, this is just an observation, I don't want this to turn into a political rant or get the thread shut down.
