Canadian woman verbally attacks Sikh politician believing him to be a Muslim.

I don't know how many of you have already had the pleasure of watching this video of Canadian politician Jagmeet Singh demonstrating extreme patience and kindness when confronted with the kind of hatred that might have inspired Mahatma Gandhi to drop a bitch, but I thought it was just too good not to share here.

Courtesy of Global News:

Singh was speaking to supporters at one of his “JagMeet and Greet” outreach events on Wednesday, when he was accosted by a heckler.

“When is your Sharia going to end?” the woman shouted, referring to traditional Islamic law. “We know you’re in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood!” 

As she continued ranting, Singh told the audience, “We don’t want to be intimidated by hate, we don’t want hatred to ruin a positive event… so let’s show people how to treat someone with love. 

“We welcome you. We love you, we support you,” he told the woman, who eventually stormed off.

When asked why he did not simply identify himself as a Sikh, Singh had this to say:  

“Many people have commented that I could have just said I’m not Muslim. In fact many have clarified that I’m actually Sikh. While I’m proud of who I am, I purposely didn’t go down that road because it suggests their hate would be ok if I was Muslim,” he said. 

“We all know it’s not. I didn’t answer the question because my response to Islamophobia has never been ‘I’m not Muslim.’ It has always been and will be that ‘hate is wrong.”

I pride myself on having gained control of my once legendary temper, and of course I would never strike a woman, but damn this lady would have pushed me right to my limits. 

I only hope that by now she has seen this video multiple times and can see just what a hateful, ignorant, despicable human being she really is.

And if she doesn't see it I hope that those around her remind of this incident everyday until she does.

    I am so ashamed of being a white person in America right now. If this woman wants to be racist at least she needs to educate herself a little bit on her racism.

    Ignorant racists are not limited to the US.

    The problem is people like that surround themselves with people like the themselves and create a bubble where their hate is "normal" behavior. It is unlikely she'll ever see that video or know what his response was, and if she does, there'll only be denial and conspiracy theories from those around her to comfort her that she wasn't wrong.

      Exactly! Can't tell you how many times a white person has said horribly racist things to me thinking all white people are as ignorant as they are. Pisses me off.

      Please stand up to that crap. I have a reputation among friends and family. They know I will call them out if they say racist shit in front of me. It may not change them but at least it puts them in filter mode and that may give them pause to think about why they are in the wrong.

    There is no such thing as civil discourse with the likes of her and her kind. Just in-your-face screaming because they have no valid rebuttal.

    Stupid bitch. I'd count myself lucky if I ha Sikhs for neighbors. Wonderful people, wonderful religion/philosophy of life.

      " the reason why this tweet is such a big story is that the sanctimonious Cruz has built his entire political image around being a socially conservative Christian. Plus, no likes Cruz. His Senate colleagues don’t like him. The American people don’t like him, and the idea of this happening to such a smug and reviled character is bringing a smile to the faces of many a person on both sides of the aisle.

      Cruz can try to dismiss this an internal matter, but the Senator from Texas still has his eyes on the White House," '@MUGMonEy$-HoT'

      When is someone going to investigate Ted Cruz's citizenship? Seems I heard his mother gave up her American citizenship to be a Canadian citizen before Ted was born. Making him a natural born Canadian and unqualified to be a U.S. Senator.

    There was a time Kushner and his wife would have taken photo-ops sitting on a White House toilet. Maybe the CNN post below explains why you don't see Kushner and his wife like we used too. Kushner and his wife have their own businesses to worry about and standing next to Toxic President Trump is not a good idea and Nuclear Waste Kushner is not good for Trump.

    "“What he did was foster a lie that was offensive, it was incorrect, it was irresponsible and it was demeaning. It embarrassed the council,"
    “Tonight marks the fourth time in my life that I have been called ‘racist,” Thompson told City Council on Thursday."through my lapse of judgement in the sharing of an inappropriate Facebook post, and the offensive word I used, even in the context of a quote directed towards me, in trying to explain my mistake,” Thompson said. “These mistakes do not reflect who I am in my inner being, and from this point on, you may be assured that I will focus all my efforts to be the leader you expected me to be when you elected me into office.”<RIGHT?

    If seeing herself on video throwing a racist hissy fit isn't enough maybe her biography will:

    Folks like her are often surrounded by like 'minded' people. Her hatred will just be bounced about and high-fived in her group. I doubt there will be any enlightenment at any time in her miserable existence. She can't even properly identify the people she 'needs' to hate. /s

    This woman showed her ignorance and her bigotry for all to see. I'm sad to see that we have a few of those unfortunate souls who don't know better in Canada as well.

    Man she had a beef! I guess you could say I am kinda prejudiced too. Because she dressed and acted like trailer trash.
    It's hard on people with all this hate. The world is getting sicker.

    This irrational hatred is a form of mental illness. At least, that is what it looks like to me.
