Burqa 'confronting', says Tony Abbott.

OMG!

 

And most of the country thinks this numbskull is suitable PM material??

 

And if that isn't bad enough when asked about Mr Kings proposed radical new policing system in which criminal suspects (only suspects mibnd you. Which i think means all Muslims in Mr Kings world)  would be injected with satellite trackable micro chips shot from a "high powered sniper rifle" his response was:

 

"I'm just not going to get into the micro-detail of policing," Mr Abbott said.


Micro detail? That is policing? How about "I'm not going to comment on what is obviously a ridiculous statement by King"? That would have been a more appropriate response Mr Abbott.

Why would you want Islamic attire to disappear? Only one aspect of it is being questioned.

I did not say "I wanted Islamic attire to disappear". 

 

Nevertheless it has already started to disappear in this country, whether you or I like it or not.

You said "lets be patient".  To me it means you're waiting for it to disappear.  Wanting it to disappear.

 

I dont think it has started to disappear at all and neither it should need to.  I know of many young women who are starting to wear it after  years of not wearing it.

Well, you have misinterpreted my words, something which you have done before in this thread to others.  And if you read my contribution before in this thread, you will see what my attitude is to this attire.

 

As for what you think about the dress being discarded by some more often, believe what you will.

Sorry, I cant recall your contributions on similar topics from other threads.  

 

As to misinterpreting your words, quite possibly.  My comments get misinterpreted as well so I know that it can be easily done.

I'd like to believe its not intentional.

I didn't mention other threads.   You are right, it is not intentional, and can easily be done, but can twist things a little.
