A massage therapist sparked debate online after being filmed arguing about Muslims in a grocery store
More than $140,000 has been raised online on behalf of a Texas woman filmed making anti-Islam comments in a grocery store.
The 44-second video, which surfaced on Sunday, shows a woman in blue medical scrubs confronting two other women who remain off camera. The woman, identified by media reports as massage therapist Dasha Kilpatrick, says: “Islam is a terrorist organization, not a religion. I’m very educated on this subject. You need to leave. You’re not welcome here. This is not a Muslim country. This is a Christian country.”
One of the women is heard responding, “You need to leave,” while another says, “We have citizenship here.”
The altercation was reportedly filmed inside an H-E-B supermarket in Conroe, Texas.
After Kilpatrick faced backlash online, a fundraiser was launched on the Christian crowdfunding platform GiveSendGo. As of Tuesday, it had raised $140,178.
This is not an outlier or an isolated incident. Perhaps the most disturbing part is the conviction this woman has in believing neighbors shopping at HEB are a threat to her and her country. This “hate virus” is a contagion we must confront with facts, truth, and unity. #txlegepic.twitter.com/Sg30vqknhp

“Dasha’s been fully doxxed, fired, and canceled for daring to speak truth in her own country. She’s now dealing with lost income, threats, and the mob coming for her holistic practice,” the fundraiser page states.
Texas State Representative Suleman Lalani described Kilpatrick’s remarks as “disturbing.”
“This ‘hate virus’ is a contagion we must confront with facts, truth, and unity,” he wrote on X.
Inner Light Holistic Healing, a business where Kilpatrick was reportedly listed as an employee, has been flooded with negative reviews.
Others, including Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace, voiced support for Kilpatrick.
“I stand with Dasha, do you?” Mace wrote on X.
Anti-Muslim incidents in the US have increased in recent years amid debates over immigration, conflicts in the Middle East, and concerns about Islamist terrorism. President Donald Trump, who signed an executive order restricting entry from several Muslim-majority countries during his first term in office, has recently accused Democrats of covering up several high-profile fraud cases in Minnesota involving Somali Americans.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said it received 8,683 complaints of discrimination and bigotry last year, the highest annual number since the organization began publishing such data in 1996.
