Islam isn’t particularly known for its fairness to women. In fact, it’s well known to be a society that treats them a second class and below, forbidding them to learn basic things such as reading and math. They’re used more like servants and breeding stock in many Islam dominated countries and are punished severely for violating any of the strict Sharia laws set for them.
This is a fact that is typically overlooked by a lot of the left, especially feminists. When it comes to Islam’s treatment of women, you’ll find many a blind eye among the social justice warriors who often go so far as to defend Islam as the “religion of peace” the left claims it is.
So when flyers began going up around Winchester, Massachusetts, that stated “Islam is right about women,” the outrage was present, but nobody wanted to say why.
According to WHDH-TV a woman discovered the flyers around the town and became “fearful.” She immediately took them down where she found them and alerted police, who then found five more around the town. Most interestingly is how the report was framed:
Anita Davison told 7NEWS that she was walking her child to school on Wednesday when saw the concerning flyers struck to street signs near the town’s center.
Davison says she was alarmed by the sight of the flyers and immediately ripped them down.
“Political climate at the moment, and all the things happening around the world, it just puts a little fear in you,” she said.
After Davison brought two flyers to the Winchester Police Department, officers went out and found eight more, including one that was posted outside of an elementary school.
Some residents say they think the signs refer to strict laws applied to women.
“Some residents say they think,” says the report.
The police of Winchester even called the flyers “not of a threatening nature,” which, if you’re a woman, would likely be a statement you’d disagree with. I also found it interesting that the station decided to include that little factoid.
The entire reason this is a story in the first place is that everyone knows exactly what the message entails and that the fear it inspires in women is legitimate. Even so, the media doesn’t want to go into these strict laws or where they originate from despite the subject being right in the flyer they’re reporting on.
It’s unclear if an Islamic faithful posted these, or if it’s a clever attempt at someone forcing people to face an inconvenient reality. Either way, the conversation is worth having.

When you think about it, it really isn't hard to troll a liberal. They leave themselves open on so many levels.

That is GENIUS!!!!
Leftists will be convinced this is some MAGA hat wearing racists at work. BUT, they cannot confront the message without offending myslims and can't defend it without offending the feminists. . .

Next, I'd like to see flyers in San Francisco that read, "Islam is right about homosexuals."

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but no matter if this may offend some people, is this not protected under the 1st Amendment ???? If so, it is funny how Liberals forget about that when it offends them. God Bless

"It's somewhat of a misconception that, like, Islam (pause) I guess, hates women."
"Somewhat" of a misconception. Don't straddle the fence, woman. It's rather un-ladylike. If it's "somewhat" of a misconception, to what degree, then, is it not a misconception? Good grief.
And the reporter saying that they were checking with the police to see if any laws were broken. What, you mean like littering? Defacement of public signage? Because the last time I checked, the First Amendment is still part of the Bill of Rights. Someone publicly posted an opinion. Is that OK with you, Little Joe Pulitzer?

Should be like the mental equivalent of a sucker-punch right to the solar plexus for gay ultra-liberals. It’s like my college friend Nick used to say, with a flaming lisp, “be gay, but don’t be fucking stupid.” He was our local Milo Yainnapolous. He had a lot of eyebrow-raising things to say about gay people who felt they HAD to be liberal, and being in New York in the years fresh after 9/11, he had no such illusions that Islam was his friend under leftism’s umbrella.

Dig the older lady: "That kind of sign is very upsetting to anyone with either an Islamic background or [as she adds emphasis] for many women!
I think she would have had a very hard time explaining why that would be upsetting for someone with an Islamic background unless they consider their own religion sexist - which seems unlikely. I think she would have had a hard enough time explaining the second part of that sentence that I would've been left giggling.
What I would like to have seen is a police PR flack having to explain why this was something they investigated and were "still investigating" at the time the reporter broadcast the segment. I bet that would've left the flack with his or her tongue tied in knots.

Possibly an under the table way of saying that whoever put them up wanted some woman to see it when she went to pick up her kid? Or a way of saying that it was reeeally reeeally intimidating in a way Occasional Cortex would have a hard time explaining?

For those who take a dim view of both Islam and feminism, like the 4chan provocateur who came up with the idea, it’s a deliciously brilliant prank.

Leaving issues relating to translating from a foreign language aside, when I was in Lutheran confirmation class, the pastor claimed that the “Thou shalt not commit adultery” commandment also applied to fornication. It doesn’t, of course, but that was hardly the only time religion teachers have altered the original intent and meaning of scripture to satisfy their own agendas.

Of course, the news doesn't really uncover WHAT is offensive about it or, put into context WHAT exactly is the controversy.
