Reply #5: Update: Womick responds to Muslim complaints

[rug]

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A national Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization today called on the Tennessee General Assembly to formally rebuke state Rep. Rick Womick for calling for removal of all Muslims from the military, a news release states.

The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said the Republican lawmaker from the Rockvale community in Rutherford County made those “un-American” remarks at an “anti-Sharia” conference Friday.

Womick said Saturday he has no opinion of what CAIR had so say.

“They are a radical Islamic group,” said Womick, who fought in as a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot in the first Gulf War to force Iraq’s military out of Kuwait in 1990-91. “Whatever they have to say, I choose to ignore.”
