If anti-Muslim hate crimes do not exist, they must be invented. They’re simply too politically useful to do without. And so it is that the Minnesota chapter of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) held a press conference Monday to demand the firing of a Starbucks barista who was so “Islamophobic” as to write “ISIS” on a Muslim woman’s coffee cup. CAIR also announced that it had filed a discrimination complaint with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights about the incident. If you think that the world is on fire and that CAIR should find more important things to be enraged about, you’re right, but there is a method to CAIR’s obsession with triviality, albeit a sinister one.
According to Sahan Journal, the hate crime took place last Wednesday, when a hijab-wearing Muslim woman went into the Starbucks that is inside the Midway Target in St. Paul, Minn., and ordered a drink. She told the barista her name, and the barista wrote it on a cup.
So far so good. But “Islamophobia” broke out when the customer received her drink and found that the barista had written “ISIS” on the cup.
The woman’s name? Aishah.

CAIR jumping on the bandwagon, LB what ever homosexual crap are jumping on the bandwagon.
Ten bucks says the coffee slinger is a New Ager who reveres Isis.
Could be worse. It could have been a guy named Marc.
This "Isis" was not guilty.
Guy probably made a mistake.
Happens to me all the time...
And, I’ll bet if she was asked to spell it (Aishah), that is racism and ignorance of a worse order.
By the way, my name is ewriyoudpdp.
Mispronounce or misspell that and all heck will descend on you, you ignorant racist non-lgbtxyz bigot.
Knowing CAIR it is probably a fictional claim. If not screw them anyway.
Depending on the pronunciation of the name, she might get it confused. Are there no girls named after the Egyptian goddess Isis?
Years ago, two white guys ahead of me in line at a DMV in California realized the female Japanese non-English-speaking clerk was trying to call one of their names as “next”. She converted the English “George” into a pigeon Spanish “Heerolldoh” and his last name into something unintelligible. It was completely absurd. I guess nowadays laughing instead of being offended would be a Hate Crime. Aishah should grow up.
So CAIR finds the name fundamentalist Islamic terrorist organization an insulting epithet? Seriesly?
yes
She was in a bar?
Hell yeah that is offensive...she is probably Al Qaeda...
Coulda said “Rape Victim”.
Is CAIR implying that there is something wrong with or offensive about ISIS?
