“Someone needs to create a non Islamic form of @uber or @lyft because I never want to support another Islamic immigrant driver.”
After learning that jihadist Sayfullo Saipov was employed as a driver for ride-sharing service Uber, conservative activist Laura Loomer, formerly an undercover journalist at Project Veritas, wondered allowed on Twitter why the company hires so many extremists. Now, Uber has permanently banned her from using its services — and its competition, Lyft, has done the same.
Here is a sampling of Loomer’s Twitter feed which caused both Uber and Lyft to deactivate her account:
Someone needs to create a non Islamic form of @uber or @lyft because I never want to support another Islamic immigrant driver.

Nearly every cab @uber @lyft driver in NYC is Muslim. It's extremely unfortunate and this is a conversation we need to have for our safety.

I'm late to the NYPD press conference because I couldn't find a non Muslim cab or @Uber @lyft driver for over 30 min! This is insanity.

Muslims are out in full force at the scene of the NYC #ISIS attack today rubbing it in everyone's face. Aimlessly walking around in hijabs. pic.twitter.com/UV0DOikmJy

To the victims of Islamic terrorism all around the world, I love & respect you. I wish I could have helped you more before Islam killed you. https://t.co/bebqxVlbwp

Loomer was also inundated with online suggestions to commit suicide. Celebrity Gigi Hadid called her a “f***ing moron.” She began to wonder why sharing her opinions under the First Amendment was leading to such ridicule. With nothing she could do about other people’s opinions, Loomer said she will be suing the companies:
I will be suing. Uber deserves to be sued not only for this, but for employing terrorists who rape, discriminate, and kill. Disgusting.

The ride-share companies claim Loomer has violated “community guidelines.”
Funny how @lyft will talk about banning me for criticizing problematic Muslim drivers but won't tell you abt their Muslim rapist driver!👇🏻 pic.twitter.com/zOHnjg4zmt
