Should the Burqa be banned in Australia

Should the Burqa and Niqab be banned in Australia?

I agree,  but if a poster plagiarises my words and construct to twist it to suit her agenda then that's what happened and your defence of her actions is unfortunate and only arouses offence, is not helpful and it’s antagonistic.

I’m sure the poster can stand up for herself from what  I’ve observed of her numerous posts but if it makes you feel better about yourself then go for it.

I don't agree with anything in your last post. Everything is there in black and white for posters/viewers to make their own opinion.

Discussion is about the banning or not of the burqa, 900+ posts.... no need to divert from that.

[lakeedge]

I dont agree with anything in your post but do go on if you feel the need to.

Hello, everyone. This discussion is getting a little heated. Could we please communicate with a more civil tone. Thanks!

UFO the following article posted a page or so back, was a C&P from the Pickering Post (opinion piece/blog)... you commented on it being well written, it wasn't the posters own words.

IF ISLAMIC COUNTRIES BAN THE BURQA WHY SHOULDN'T WE?

Ask Tony Abbott, and while you are at it -  ask why the majority of Western countries in the world are taking action on Climate Change, so why shouldn't we?

Simply stating (repeatedly) what other countries do on certain issues and why Australia should do the same is just naive and lacking in sense.

Not to mention that most islamic countries that ban the burka are doing so for racist reasons of their own. Not all muslims wear the burka. Only some sectors and I think you find that the countries banning the burka are doing it to restrict the freedoms of the religious groups that they have been at war with historically or modern day.

As predicted.

Pickerings Post blog thing (rambles) not many are taken in by that. Prefer to get information from a wide source of articles and reliable sources

Abbott talking with another male about beach attire; nothing odd or confronting about that. We are free to speculate that it is a male under all that black material.

and I am free to express my alarm of the amount of people suffering from fear of cross dressers.

[cherry*135]

and I am free to agree with you, as I thought of that before you posted it first, earlier in the thread.

 Many many countries are  now banning the wearing of this dehumanizing garb but thats   because all these countries are racist and whipping up hate towards muslims?.....hmmm.ok
