    How anti-social do you think Muslims are going to get when you start banning parts of their culture? I only see violence coming from that decision.

    lol.....I go get some lunch and more people from the pro-terrorist gang show up, such as ferret!! lmfao!!

    you people will do anything to support terrorism...and yes cehcksum, you are avoiding the question. If a nation is under islamic law, then I could see making the burqa mandatory...but if not, the nation can make the laws that they deem necessary to protect the nation, and if banning burqa's keeps cross dressing terrorists from running around, then thats ok with me.

    What's to stop a cross dressing terrorist from becoming an over dressed terrorist? Banning the burqa solves nothing.

    Hmm, I avoided that question quite masterfully if I say so myself. :rolleyes:

    Maybe straw+blair should hold a big discussion with the imaam's and if that doesnt solve problems, the best solution is to use a lucky draw system or play rock paper scissors to see who wins.
    I know that this is a wild idea, but it seems fair enough, if the cause of the burqa-supporters is right, then allah will help then win the draw/rock sham boo game :rolleyes:

    Because protecting a piece of muslim culture makes me a terrorist supporter, right?

    That's assuming they can get more anti-social?

    If i went to an Islamic country & wanted to open a pubic house would that be ok as it's part of my culture?

    I'm not sure what a pubic house is, but if it isn't harming anyone else you should be able to do whatever you like. Live and let live, right?

    I know this isn't how it works in the ME, but it should be how it works. If we aren't willing to extend that kind of openess, why should we expect any in return?

    I wouldn't say that...

    all I was saying is that it appears that checksum is against anything that could potentially make alot of people safer. thats all. When you have terrorists running around dressed like women (see the link I posted earlier), then you have to be careful. Its not a matter of who is offending whom, because everyone gets offended. If its a matter of national security, which is what I have been saying, then let them do it.

    Guy, you're talking like a burqa is the only thing that can cover up a vest lined with explosives.

    What part of my argument do you not understand?

    BAnning of any thing is bad, this is a religious issue and you better care before discussing, if some one dont like burqa, some one dont like BIKINI, what i think is we should not intervene in other religious lives,
    Live and let live...:)

    Let's see what other things can potentially make a lot of people safer:

    1) Forbid cars- More people die in car accident than from burga
    2) Forbid Cigarettes- More people die from cigarettes than from burga
    3) Forbid Alcohol- More people die from Alcohol than from burga
    4) Forbid Guns- More people die by Guns than from burga
    5) Forbid Swimming- More people drown than die from burga

    :rolleyes:

    If there is ever a stupid argument for something, we can be sure d16boy will post it. :D

    A 'public house' or pub is the equivalent of an American bar.

    We give Muslims everything:

    we welcome them into our country

    we make them feel welcome (we even have PC to help those who are too touchy)

    we respect their right to pratice their religion (we have praying rooms for them at work, their allow days off for Muslim holidays & events, they have mosques everywhere)

    we allow them to protest even to the point of holding signs that amount to terrorists threats "your 9/11 is coming soon UK"

    we allow them to take over whole towns (and i mean whole towns that are pure muslims only)

    I think your above question should be looked at from this prospective:

    If they aren't willing to extend that kind of openess, why should we expect any in return?

    These burqa's are a sign of Muslims not wanting to fit into the UK, not wanting to be apart of the UK, i know for a fact many would like their own middle east in the UK (mind you they do in some places).

    I don’t like to see the Sikhs with their turbans and long natural hair. Let’s force them to have a hair cut and get rid of their turbans as they could conceal bombs in them.

    Remember they have killed more people in terrorist attacks then Muslim people wearing the Burqa.

    Here are some facts about them.

    1984: India's prime minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by her Sikh bodyguards

    1985: The Sikhs were responsible for Canada's worst mass killing and the largest act of air terrorism before Sept. 11, 2001. A bomb blows up Air India Flight 182 as it flies from Montreal to London. 329 people are killed.

    Two Sikhs terrorist organizations are currently proscribed under UK legislation, and therefore outlawed in the UK:

    1-Babbar Khalsa (BK):
    BK is a Sikh movement that aims to establish an independent Khalistan within the Punjab region of India .

    2-International Sikh Youth Federation (ISYF):
    ISYF is an organization committed to the creation of an independent state of Khalistan for Sikhs within India​
    ----

    You’d better to stay away from the turbaned heads; you’d never know why they keep their hair covered.

    Beware of these people:

    I’m sorry to have picked on you Sikhs. I have all the respect for your religion and your dress code. I just want to draw similarities for some idiots who feel uncomfortable near people who don’t look like them. :D

    Sikhs do make an effort to mix with UK people & they respect the UK.

    That’s why the UK is not Taliban’s Afghanistan, Khomeini’s Iran or Wahabi’s Saudi Arabia. That why you can be proud of yourselves as highly civilized nation. A nation where there is freedom of thoughts and beliefs, a place where people are treated with dignity and respect.

    There is only a very small minority of women in the UK who actually wear the Burqa (Don’t confuse between the Burqa and Hijab) so basically their dress code is irrelevant to most people. But if you stop people wearing what they like, then I’m sorry the UK will no longer be able to lecture the world about freedom and human rights.
