Wow: This Family Got Thrown Off A Bus Because A Muslim Was “Offended” By A Children’s Song A Muslim woman on a bus was recently offended over a children’s song sung by a couple, Nick Barnfield and Sara Cleaves, to their fifteen month old baby. The two parents sang the theme song from a popular children’s program, Peppa Pig, a song that naturally includes snorting sounds. The Muslim woman took offense at the song, which she thought was directed at her. She even accused the couple of racism, despite Islam being a religion rather than a race. She tried and succeeded in getting the parents kicked off the bus. As the parents said: “She went up to the bus driver and told him we were being racist towards her…The driver came up to me and said we had to get off the bus or the police would have to come.” The couple described the emotions they felt at the time: “We were really embarrassed, ashamed and upset and we hadn’t done anything wrong- just trying to make our little girl happy. But people were looking at us as if we had done something wrong.” What do you think? Was it appropriate for a Muslim woman to complain and get the passengers kicked out over the song? Or is this an example of politically correct hypersensitivity?
