Minnesota: Tea Party Candidate Compares Muslim Women to Garbage Bags

Posted on 08 June 2012 by Emperor

^Cindy Pugh photoshops the above image to add garbage bags (h/t: Martin)

Just your friendly Minnesotan Tea Party representative comparing Muslim women and children to garbage bags. It’s kind of appalling that she would teach this to her child.

She kinda reminds me of Lynne Torgerson, and will no doubt likewise go down in the annals of Islamophobic loon politics:

Minnesota: Tea Party candidate for state rep. compares Muslim women to garbage bags

Tea Party candidate for state representative Cindy Pugh uses her Facebook profile to defend Scott Walker, criticize Barack Obama, and boast about her ongoing campaign to defeat incumbent state Rep. Steve Smith, a Republican from Mound.

But she also used it recently to compare Muslim women and children clad in traditional Islamic garb to garbage bags.

Pugh shared the above photo on May 21 with the following commentary: “Disturbing … that women & little girls are OK with dressing like this!!! What will it take for these women to stand up and say, ‘NO’!? Wondering if they will ever do that?!”

The photo was originally uploaded by “Proud to be an Infidel,” a Muslim-bashing page with the following slogan: “It’s not Islamophobia when they are really trying to kill you.”

As a Muslim, I find this really disturbing. I don’t wear niqab but I don’t mind if adult women choose to wear it. I however am 100% percent against children wearing it. This photo (the non-photoshopped version as well) just brings me to tears. Hijab and niqab are about modesty (although I personally don’t think niqab makes you more modest) and they are a veil to protect women from wandering eyes. A child of the age of the girl in this picture should not have to worry about modesty and being veiled. I know kids who wear the hijab by choice, although I personally would advise my own daughters in the future not to wear it until they hit puberty. But this full black niqab is just too much, especially on a child.

To all of you, this is what Steve meant:

Steve, this video is an excerpt from an Italian “Candid Camera show”.
Two italian women put on niqabs and ate disgustingly in a restaurant.
Many anti-islam thugs cut the video and presented it on youtube as truth.

Does any muslim believe that a muslim woman wearing niqab would do something like this?

Does any normal person believe that any woman would eat like this?

Well, apparently, anti-islam thugs believe muslim woman are uncivilized beings who came to “civilized” world, ….

Pfui!!!

“Not likely, many misogynistic hypocrites like rookie, Faisal, and HGG who view women as breeding machines to make Muslims the biggest religious group in the world,…”.

Well, we do our best to be the biggest religious group in the world.
)))))))))
But, we did not expect you could unveil that secret of ours.
)))))))))))))))
Anyway, we have one more card in our sleeve – Taqiyya.
This is where we always get you.
Well, ok, Robert Spencer unveiled that too, but we still have “leftists”, to lie to….

Dan25, I know why you are angry, angry with me, angry with loonwatch, angry with most of the commenters here…#I admitt, I am on many occassions rude with some of you guys, but, read this:

“Mohammad said:WAR IS DECEIT and ISLAM IS AT ETERNAL WAR WITH KAFIRS.”

Obviously, we have experts on Izlaam here.
You present facts to these experts, they reject everything and accuse you of lying; you do it again with facts and nothing but facts, they still refuse to believe…that`s why I am rude sometimes.

But, if you want to know what rudeness and hate in the real sense of the word means, visit hate sites of Bobby-boy and Pammy-girl.

@AJ, that’s up to those people and I don’t care
Believing Atheist

@AJ,

Don’t you feel kind of hypocritical that you are chastising Steve for being a bigot and looking down at people while you simultaneously looked down at me and accused me of being a SockPuppet?

Next time you do a Quranic Verse of the Day in your blog analyze ones where it teaches Muslims not to lie and learn something from it.

Steve,

How do you feel if a person does not like to talk with you or your wife since that person doesn’t like talking with overweight people, looks down upon them or feels sorry for them?

“Tea Party Candidate Compares Muslim Women to Garbage Bags”

Great! I don’t think they’ve managed to realize yet (after all, they’re just bags in-black meant for garbage), but sure I’ll pass the message to both my niqabi sister and niqabi best-friend, hey gals realize you’re none BUT garbage-bag!?

But I wonder what they’do if someone (like Steve?) said that to their face. They’ll probably give him from their fent showing a lowered laser-beam look, amplifying the petite-ness of the pipi between his legs that never grown, so much so as he’ll run without demanding what’s left of him!

@Mr Steve says .. “I wouldn’t engage in conversation with somebody wearing one”

Stevy, great to know you’ve saved yourself from “engage in conversation” with niqanis, but either way rest assure, cause they too anyway saves their laser-beams for someone that has bulls to begin-with. Beside Stevy, its not there’s much to amplify concerning you anyway! we already apparent!

“in my culture”

Ha, and what would that “culture” be?
Steve

@Liliane, “If we want to cover our bodies and faces, what’s the problem with you?”

You can wear what you like, I haven’t said otherwise. I don’t agree with the niqab and I wouldn’t engage in conversation with somebody wearing one as in my culture covering your face when engaging in a conversation in person is considered rude but that hardly stops you wearing one if you want to. However there are other forms of dress I don’t particularly care for, I am sure the same goes for you also.

@Liliane Sister,
These people don’t know what modesty is and what its value is.

@AKM,
I can site you many links sexual harassment in West. Net is full of this filth. However, whoever assaults women he must be severely punished whether he is Muslim or Non_Muslim. Hmm, Sever Punishment? Now West will come crying how barbaric Muslims are!

@Halal,
War is deceit? Better read loon watch articles on this topic. I will not go into this discussion because LW has done great job to shutdown morons like you. /* ISLAM IS AT ETERNAL WAR WITH KAFIRS */ so what? Are Kafirs not at war with Islam (meaning war on terror the name you people have given)? If you see us as terror then we also see you as violent terrors. They question is how we look at each other. For you, I am terrorist and for me you indeed are terrorist too.

When in Muslim countries,the European women have to comply with their dress code.These Muslim women who want to dress SAUDI ARABIAN or Iranian BURKAS in America should be given a choice.Either no burka or leave.Recently,Muslim MEN have USED BURKAS to commit terrorism acts in AFGHANISTAN.They could use the same tactics in America.Mohammad said:WAR IS DECEIT and ISLAM IS AT ETERNAL WAR WITH KAFIRS.

Liliane,

You are like a breath of fresh air here!
AKM

“Are you kidding? Have you ever worn a mini skirt in Southern Italy? In Spain? In India?”

I’m not a woman and I’m not saying that it doesn’t exist in the west(and I wouldn’t call India the west) but nowhere near the level of Egypt and with this grotesque example that I’ve linked to above are you really going to argue otherwise?
Liliane

AKM “if western societies are so immoral then how come women can walk freely in public without fear of sexual harassment?”

Are you kidding? Have you ever worn a mini skirt in Southern Italy? In Spain? In India?
Liliane

Listen Steve,

If we want to cover our bodies and faces, what’s the problem with you? We are happy, our families are happy, even the owner of your favorite restaurant is happy – if you see so many women in niqab, it means the restaurant is making good business.

If you like looking at women, there are millions of them who are uncovered, maybe some of them would even be pleased to receive your attentions. Not Muslim women, we are no-go, we are only for our husbands. Stop.
AKM

Faisal Rathor, at the end of the day if western societies are so immoral then how come women can walk freely in public without fear of sexual harassment?

This would never have happened in the “immoral” western world.

Jack Cope Says:

Did I deny inner modesty? Not at all. Both are as important as other because they both are linked together. Yeah, dirty minds people enforce their view upon women to cover! And clear minded people like to see women uncover. What a disturbed mentally people have!

Tell me any society who is not making women “sex appeal”. West? Europe? East? Nah, you make them “sex appeal” open outside of marriage. If both man and women agrees to have sex outside of marriage then West and Europe has no issues because in this both have consensus. Ha, you are talking about Muslim men thinking their wives as “sex appeal”? However, if married couples are not sex appealing to each other then there could be lot of fitnah (trials) for both that they would seek illicit sex outside of marriage.

See how bad these Muslim men, they are always have sex in their minds with their wives. Right? How pious you guys are always thinking to have sex outside of marriage.

You have the right to disagree concerning beards. Hmm, whoever is observing his religious duties is show off. Is that what you mean? Your perception, who cares. If that is the case, then that is far better than disobedient to God.

@Steve,

I am not hear to win the discussion but where was a topic of yours, very vital! Kids are being deprived to see their mother face???

“The vast majority or muslim women in the UK don’t wear niqabs at all (although I do see more of them these days).”

Have you considered that this might be a good thing since it means more niqab wearing women are being allowed to leave home by controlling families? It doesn’t necessarily mean there is a greater uptake, it could just mean that more women are expressing and finding out about their ‘rights’ and so on.
