Saw a woman in a full Burkha (sp) in Penn station

[lartinos]

lol

Do us all a favor...

Remember all of the Muslim extremist terrorist attacks over the past decade in every country around the world.

How many of them were wearing burkas at the time?

That's what I thought.

Fucking idiot.

Please google woman in Burkha explodes bomb killing 5.

Please google woman in Burkha explodes bomb killing 5.

But Pakistan isn't a real country.

Besides, that's 1. The one that killed 40 is 2. How many others were not burkha related?

Hey, if you wanna wear a burkha, then good for you. If you wanna ban burkhas, then good for you. I wanna ban glittering vampires and handguns; but we all can't get what we want.

All religion is fucked up bullshit. If people really want to live the one life they have by a bunch of rules invented by their imaginary friends,they should probably see a shrink

It does not beg the question. Why shouldn't they be allowed to wear what they want?

A bank (Credit Union actually) I used to bank at made a requirement, sometime before 9/11 actually, that when you came into their bank you had to remove any sunglasses and hats or any other item(s) covering your face in any way.

If you were going to rob them, they wanted as much of your face on their cameras as possible.

I never fought them on it, I just removed my sunglasses (I don't wear hats). I wonder though...if a woman in a full burkha with her face covered refused to uncover her face...what would they do? I suspect it's happened in the over 10 years since I last banked there. I wonder how that went? Was the woman/women refused service? Did she try to sue? What was the outcome?

I'm sure that can't be the only banking institution with such a rule either.

We view people that posted signs up on their doors saying "no blacks allowed" as savages about 60 years ago as we should have, But here you are displaying that same racism but instead of it geared towards a certain race our modern day society and propaganda deem it ok to hate Muslims. Although I don't agree with the bhurka being worn in Countries such as the US it should be known that it is not a religious requirement but more of a cultural tradition (and the notion of oppressing women in Islam goes directly against all that Islam teaches in the Quran). Instead of bashing a religion many of you seem to know nothing about except what the racist and biased media such as fox 5 tell you, maybe read a chapter of the Quran or some literature about the religion. If there are murderers that are Christian or Jewish then they are just labeled murderers but if there is an ignorant Muslim whose illegal and immoral actions contradict the basis of the religion then they are called Islamic terrorists or as you so eloquently stated "cult". Hatred only inspires hatred and understanding only inspires friendships. It's easy to believe everything you hear but it is more wise to use your God given minds to search and understand about people of different faiths and then will you realize that Judaism, Christianity and Islam's original scriptures are almost identical.

Muslim is a race?

Now that I think about it...here we have some gas station/convenience stores where you can't wear hoods or sunglasses, and most banks have that rule too. I doubt those women are just out making deposits and driving around town by themselves lol..

If a person walked into a business wearing a ski mask you can bet your ass theres going to be a concern. How about this little brainstorm: A man (black/white whatever) enters a bank wearing full burkha so no one can tell its a man or woman, slips the teller a "give me the money" note, leaves, ditches the costume after the hunt begins and is never caught. Then tells his buddy "yea i thought of that idea for robbing banks since our society doesnt seem to care if people walk around wearing head to toe disguises, and it worked like a charm"

Please google woman in Burkha explodes bomb killing 5.

Please Google recent bombings with an open mind rather than Googling what you want to fit your views.

If you do, you'll see we should probably ban jeans as well. Fuck jeans, Yo. Terrorists wear jeans. You've probably worn some recently too, haven't you? Lart is a terrorist. Everybody who wears clothes a terrorist has worn is a terrorist.

Thats happened multiple times.

I think it's fine for banks, for example, to require such garb to be removed for security reasons. I don't think most businesses need such measures.

This isn't really a problem with Muslim women though, this is a problem with non-Muslim individuals. Muslim women who choose to wear burkas usually aren't the one in the relationship spending time in banks.
