Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) beclowned herself once again in comments she made on Easter. A Twitter user posted video footage of a group of Christians singing a worship song on an airplane and her response to the post elicited fierce criticism for her apparent display of bigotry.

“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?” the lawmaker wrote.

Other Twitter users responded to Omar’s silly tweet by calling her out for trying to portray Americans as anti-Muslim bigots. Here is a small sampling of the backlash:

I spent decades flying in the Middle East. We weren’t even allowed to bring Bibles into the countries or worship. This sort of impromptu singing would turn into arrests and imprisonment. I’ll celebrate our freedoms here. You do you. @IlhanMN

I’ve been on many airlines from majority Muslim countries that play a Muslim prayer on the screen at takeoff. Never once concerned me and actually i thought it was pretty cool. https://t.co/g2Jc800POM

There are Islamic Laws for praying on a plane, train, ship, etc. That’s how we pray on planes. Also, many airlines actually have Qibla 🕋 directions on their screens. You’d know this if you actually pray. We do that all year round, yet you’re crying over a 2 min song on Easter. https://t.co/UHD9eemD5Q

Qatar – a country you’re very familiar with – plays Islamic prayers on the intercom before takeoff on their planes. They have a designated prayer area & coordinates for Mecca are posted on the screens.

It’s no problem. The issue is you hate Christians & Jews & lots of Muslims. https://t.co/wBX1ycl5nv

This line of claptrap is not surprising coming from Omar. Folks like her constantly use their platforms to paint Americans as bigots. But in this case, as with most others, her argument fell woefully short. The vast majority of Americans would not care if Muslims said prayers while they were on an airplane. Indeed, they might be less annoyed by that than by a guy whipping out a 6-string and loudly singing a worship song while they’re trying to enjoy their in-flight movie.

Unfortunately, progressives simply can’t stomach the fact that most Americans are not as bigoted as they would have us believe. After all, hate is their bread and butter. Without making fake accusations of ‘phobias and ‘isms, they wouldn’t have much to add to the conversation given that their ideas are about as popular as a root canal.
