Re: Ban the burkha ?
Can I suggest that we get back on track.. Anyones parents' supposed ethnicity is largely irrelavant to this discussion

I'm not embarrased or ashamed that she isn't my mother. I'm quite annoyed that she isn't.

I for one support your stance of stating proudly and and in public that you acted on her instruction and, to be honest, I think your mum is a bit of a looker.

I did say it wasn't my mother.

I think they should be banned in all places where it's considered a security or a safety risk. a risk where the identity of the person should be visible to others.
I have a bit of a problem where some women muslims only now start wearing them. which may come across as they are being deliberately antagonistic by doing so.

Because he has been running you around in circles which is why he posts his anti Muslim threads in the first place. In other words he has yet again made fools out of some.

Because nobody asked. they just ramble on about smoking and how good looking my mother is and stuff. then you get the usual rundown of who I am as a person. sometimes I feel I'm lucky not to be a Muslim with all the persecution I get

So you won't state your opinion but would rather we play twenty questions instead so as to try and understand why you are posting what can only be described as inane drivel.Screw that..I'm not playing that game.Either you state up front what you think or I just view you as a Muslim hater.

I have stated my opinion many times. I'm only answering what people are asking me during the course of the debate.
and I couldn't really give a damn whether you want to view me as a muslim hater just because you 'want to'

If nothing else at least you've shown some empathy, based on your own experiences, towards muslims in relation to the varying degrees of persecution which many of them are subjected to as a result of ill informed and largely unfounded prejudices.
Well done.

But you don't 'answer' anything..you make pointless ambiguous comments that seem to indicate that you don't like Muslims and then when finally pushed to it seem to disavow all that you have said up to that point..I'm not playing that game anymore and I suggest everyone else makes a vow not to be suckered in either.
