Rep. Steve King jokes about forcing Muslims in China to eat pork
Source: Axios
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) joked at a town hall in Audubon, Iowa, Tuesday about sterilizing Muslim women in China "so theres no more Uighurs to be born," and "trying to force them to eat pork," the Sioux City Journal reports.
Why it matter: King has been struggling to attract donors over his previous controversial comments about race and abortion. Per Axios' Dave Lawler, China has detained an estimated 1 million to 2 million Uighur Muslims in the region of Xinjiang in internment camps. Under Islamic law, Muslims are forbidden from eating pork.

(2,689 posts)Because the Uighurs are Chinese and guess what their name rhymes with -- hee, hee, hee -- and also muslim. Totally hysterical. Because they ain't like you folks, all white and purty and 'telligent. No, you see, Uighur rhymes with, well, you know, and yet they aren't black at all. Funny, right? And chinese, but they're muslims who don't supposed to eat pork. Get it?
(Steve, my man, I hope you get enough free time on your hands real, real quick-like so you can start a new career as a stand-up comic and target for rotten vegetables and sacks of animal feces.)

"That's the only part of that I agree with," King said. "Everyone should eat pork."

This putz is in so far over his little pointy head, that he really doesn't understand how his loose talk is offensive for no real reason. It benefits him nothing, gains him no supporters and in the end, costs him financially.
Steve -- retire. Go buy a horse ranch. Start a new career. But, please, retire !
