Last Thursday, an armed robber pushing a child's buggy and disguised as a woman in a burka went to the Friends Jewellers in Smethwick, West Midlands.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

I could not agree more!!, as i said in another thread they expect us to wear a burkha, this is our country and they should follow our rules, or maybe bring in the rules lol

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Better ban police uniforms as well, then, on that premise - Securitas
And clowns' uniforms

And postmen's uniforms

And Humphrey Bogart costumes

And Winnie the Pooh

You're getting hysterical again ;)

Maybe for the sake of this man's future freedom we should ban the wearing of all clothes.;)

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Shops should treat wearers of the Burkha exactly the same as those wearing any other item that conceals the face such as hoodies or motorcycle crash helmets, a person should not be allowed on the premises wearing a Burkha if other forms of concealing the face are not allowed.

As a matter of courtesy I always remove my motorcycle helmet at garages and any shop before I enter. Also I would not be expected to enter my workplace wearing a crash helmet. A work colleague wearing a flip front crash helmet has been asked at a garage to remove it entirely for security reasons even though it shows his face.

My local pub makes people remove any hats or caps as they enter the premises for cctv purposes, I would expect them to request the same of someone wearing a Burkha.

I see no reason why there should be any exclusions to the rule, although perhaps the government should assure shop keepers that they will not face any action if they refuse entry to someone wearing a Burkha.

If this happened and the rule applied to all, the Burkha would perhaps not need to be banned.

Maybe for the sake of this thread we should stick to the topic , which is not naked men .

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Actually I am sticking to the topic..which is where do we draw the line when it comes to banning things.Surely in a society that doesn't allow one man what he regards as his right to wear no clothes we then go to the other extreme and ban people from covering up their entire bodies by choice..

The whole stance is utterly ridiculous and is just another means of sticking it to the Muslims yet again..:rolleyes:

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Actually you're not. it's about banning the burkha. just like bringing up children in general isn't about Deborah the servant of God :)

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

No you lot just don't like your prejudices being challenged..and the Naked Rambler is just the opposite side of a ridiculous argument that everyone who hides their face is a terrorist.:rolleyes:

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Maybe some think of the security of man, woman and child more than they care about being accused of prejudices :rolleyes:

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Name anyone has been attacked and killed in this country by anyone wearing a burkha at the time.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

but what's wrong in treating them same as everyone else ? why should we give them special treatment (in this case )
