[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Then this whole episode is, of course, being blown way, way out of proportion. What is so bad about the comment about Mrs. Khan not being able to speak? [b]Frankly, many people probably wondered the same thing[/b]. It's no secret that women are considered second class citizens in the Muslim world. It's wasn't PC of him to say it, maybe, but it was the truth.

And once again, that is what his supporters like about him.[/quote]

Trumpeters who believe Muslim women should be quietly subservient are probably confused why the Khans are supporting the notably not quietly subservient Hillary Clinton over the He-Man Donald Trump. I suppose such posters might ask the quietly subservient Mike Pence or Chris Christie, but they might not be allowed to speak.

Who said Trump supporters believe that? If anything, Trump supporters are the ones who (rightly) abhor radical Islam and the subservience of women is yet another reason why.[/quote]

The poster above indicated that. But, to clarify, I meant that Trump supporters believe that Muslims think women should be quietly subservient. Many, like Trump, seemed to think that Mrs. Khan was quiet because she wasn't allowed to speak due to her religion. Were that true, it would be inconsistent with an endorsement of the clearly not quiet Hillary Clinton.

Asking a sincere question...is it possible that Mrs. Khan does admire and endorse the clearly not quiet HRC but, as a Muslim wife, is not allowed to speak in that type of situation?[/quote]

You are such an idiot. There is literally nothing in Islam about a wife not being able to speak in "that type of situation".  No, there is nothing in the Muslim law that says, "should your husband be invited to speak about your dead son, you, the wife, should stand still and not talk".

If she was not allowed to speak, don't you think she'd just stay home? [/quote]

Oh, please.

If you knew anything about Islam (obviously you don't) you would know that women are considered subservient and inferior to men. Or do you think they just enjoy dressing in burkas in 100 degree heat?  That doesn't fit your narrative, I understand, but just because you want to believe that it's "just another beautiful religion" doesn't make that true.[/quote]

?  You know that not all Muslim women wear burqas, right?  Many Muslim women are more fashionable than American women.

what about those extremist "Christian" women who are only allowed to wear dresses?  Sure, not as oppressive as burqas but it's the same type of subservience that is required.  Are the Amish a terrible group, too?  Heck, they are not even allowed to use electricity.

I don't disagree that extremist Muslims are terrible, but you, and Trump, really need to learn the difference, and that we have right wing extremist groups here, too, on our very soil that subjugates women.[/quote]
