To Hijab or not to Hijab

[Brenus]

"My solution is to forbid immigration.": Let them die. And that is not fascism? How do you intend to enforce it? I am quite curious on the methods?

Let them die. And that is not fascism?

[Viking]

Let them die.

That is hardly ever the alternative. As a matter of fact, a majority of the recent migrant deaths would likely been avoided if they felt certain that Europe would not let them enter. They did not leave behind countries that had turned into lakes of lava; especially not the peaceful countries the they travelled through (and in some cases: lived in) before getting to their final destination.

If I were in charge of this country, I'd put a temporary moratorium on non-work immigration in order to see how well it can cope with its current cultural de facto segregation.

I.e. primarily only those who already have been given a job or those who have not spent more than, say, 6-12 months trying to find one would be allowed to stay. Exceptions could be made for high-profile individuals as well as groups of people that are likely to assimilate over a few generations (such as people from 'similar' cultures, or small groups of people from cultures not already present in the country).

So we are all glad that Putin removed the Russian immigrants from Ukraine now?

I don't mind Hijabs and stuff, if the women themselves wake up in the morning and feel like wearing it.

The problems arise when others want to force it upon them.


This is of course a tough nut to handle for a democratic western society... We support religious beliefs, but also the individual's right. When these two sides clashes, it's hard to pick a side.

Well, for some. For me it isn't.


I am ALL for a ban on the Hijab in public... Mainly because the "religious freedom" argument is basically taken hostage by desert tribal people 2015.

I don't exactly see muslim intellectual women on the barricade to allow hijabs... In fact, among muslim intellectual women they generally shy away from the hijab.

Also, don't bring your fugged up culture that already ruined YOUR nation to MY nation, mmmmmmkay?

[Fragony]

Wouldn't go that far, I don't have a problem with a hijjab as long as I can have problem with it. So no complaining if you don't get hired somewhere if you insist on wearing it. Should go both ways.

edit, was @ kads

Hijab hasn't ruined any nation.

[Kadagar_AV]

Hijab hasn't ruined any nation.

That was directed to Islamists in general, not hijab wearers in particular.
