Ilhan Omar upset on Easter over Christians singing religious songs

Forgets she isn't holding a mic while yelling at unbelievers

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) hate-tweeted about Christians singing Christian worship songs on a flight that she was on. The fact that a group of Christians over Easter weekend would have the audacity to sing Christian songs in the presence of a Muslim congresswoman goes beyond her sense of entitlement.

The flight contained Christian volunteers on an Easy Jet flight in Europe delivering aid to Ukraine.

Some folks more tolerant than Omar criticized her for tweeting:

I think my family and I should have a prayer session next time I am on a plane. How do you think it will end? pic.twitter.com/5696Erwsl5

By 'family' does she mean all of her husbands including her brother, her two daughters from her first marriage, or just her current campaign manager husband? 

By 'end', does she think that we believe she will go all out jihad on the passengers and blow up the plane? Or perhaps the passengers will attack her for praying because that never happened before?

She's an intolerant, angry, entitled person who we now can see has gotten into the business of attacking other people's religion with her bile and somehow making herself out to be a victim when it was never about her and her family in the first place.

Here are just a few of the responses to her garbage tweet:

Kurt Schlichter, attorney and columnist: “I think you should shut up and stop being a bigot.”

John Cardillo, political commentator: “Without issue. I’ve been on many flights with Muslims saying a prayer before takeoff. No one cares.”

Avi Kaner, business owner: “Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN attacks a group of Christian volunteers on an @easyJet flight in Europe delivering aid to Ukraine, because they’re singing. She has no idea about what transpired and whether or not it was approved. But it’s suddenly about her.”

Shant Mesrobian, writer: “A member of Congress is supposed to have the restraint and maturity to not post a stupid, random, old video that for some reason is going viral right now as a way to score religious culture war points on a holy day for millions of people around the world.”

Asra Q. Nomani, activist and former professor: “One thing upon which we can depend: Ilhan Omar/CAIR is a perpetual participant in the Oppression Olympics. And as Easter begins, she has to compete with a Christian ‘prayer session.’”

Ilhan Omar's time has come to vote her out of office when she's due to run again for her third term in November. Her obvious dislike for our Judeo-Christian way of life should disqualify her for office, except it is precisely our Judeo-Christian way of life that allows her to run.

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter or Passover, and for my Muslim readers, Ramadan Mubarak.
