BGD 6,436 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) This is fecking shameful, government deciding what folk can and can't wear? There's a legitimate argument that can be made for banning face coverings but this is just ridiculous. Edited August 13, 2016 by BGD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 22,838 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 If you had small numbers of Muslims in a country they would integrate no problem....the first one off the boat wouldn't come off wearing a face covering or set of to the beach in a burkini. The mill workers who arrived decades ago certainly didn't Once their numbers reach a certain density they try to build their own little eastern shit hole within the west. British expats do the same...small numbers live like the Spanish, higher densities want English pubs and coronation St on large screen. The problem is Muslim communities produce many issues we don't want or need,so in my view anything that reminds them they aren't in Islamabad is a good thing 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brewman 1,192 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 I don't see what the issue is? If Sikhs, Hindus and Jews can integrate why can't muslims? If they don't I don't see the issue with countries bringing in their own rules to combat things happening in their society that are at odds with the building blocks of their way of life. If you don't agree with what's happening then move over to France and demonstrate with the freedom loving muslim population as I'm sure they'll accept you as an equal and appreciate your assistance. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Silversnake 1,099 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 From little acorns mighty oak trees growI totally agree and the oaks have been neglected too long, but with quality fertilising and hard pruning even the most neglected tree can quickly come back to full health and grow stronger than ever! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mackem 26,544 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 When in rome,western women would be stoned,molested,raped whatever if they wore scanty clothes in staunch muslim countries because its deemed offensive,likewise burkinis arent welcome on western beaches because they are again deemed offensive,fairs fair.

There's a legitimate argument that can be made for banning face coverings but this is just ridiculous. Try telling that to middle eastern countries, see what happens to a western woman wearing a bikini over there, then you will see what ridiculous is. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
