too hot?  you can wear what you like on the bottom half - that would keep you cool wouldn't it?

Let's ban cars. Can be used for ram raids not to mention road carnage. How about cutlery. Chefs knives. Now they can be used to kill. A chef cut up his ex and was busy boiling her. That happened in Brisbane this weekend.

Banning the burqa/niqab being worn, won't stop terrorist attacks thats for sure.

Please list some terrorist attacks (any where in the world) that have been committed by males wearing burqa's.

Also list terrorist attacks that have been carried out by men wearing male clothing (shirts, long pants/shirts).

what did your last slave die of? 

• Gunman disguised in burka and sunglasses robs cash courier
• Burka-wearing gunmen raid French bank - Telegraph
• Selfridges robbery: 'Men in burkas' in 'smash and grab' - BBC
• Niqabs and Burqas as Security Threats :: Daniel Pipes

  ok I know you asked for specifically TERRORIST attacks by men wearing a burqa of which there are currenlty none. Yet.

  Above links however do show that men do wear the burqa as a concealing garment, a disguise.

  I haven't bothered with men wearing male garb, but we all know there's plenty of that.

  I haven't clicked through all those links btw, I hope they all work. I'm sure I'll hear about it if they don't lol.

  now I really have to go.

Yes, I said terrorist attacks, as that is what people are claiming in this thread - a male wearing a burqa setting up a terrorist attack and posters are using that as a reason to ban them in Australia.

A terrorist attack where dozens or 100's or 1000's of people are killed isn't in the same league as a man wearing a burqa to rob a bank.

just because it hasn't happened yet - it will never happen - is that your contention.

let's put another senario - so far (as far as I know anyway) no-one has stolen a nuclear device and planted it and killed thousands - by your logic then, we should not bother checking for nuclear devices in shipping containers.

To those who think Pakistani women are more oppressed than elsewhere, I found a couple of pics which demonstrate that their clothing is much freer than we see here in Muslim women.

  The late Pakistani Prime Minister

These are examples of women's attire which I observed.  I was there for 6 weeks in the largest city.  This is what at least 90% of Muslim women wore.  Then there were a lot of saris which the Hindu women wore.  Very few niqabs or burqas.
