Switzerland About To Vote On Minaret Ban

[Subotan]

that is YOUR opinion, and you aren't Swiss, as far as i know, so your opinion doesn't count..

Yes, in exactly the same way that Swiss Muslim's opinion don't count.

no, probably not.

but they are not obliged to know, or to feel comfortable with someone else's religious symbols.

The only thing worse in a democracy than non-voters, is ignorant voters. They are obliged to know if they're going to make a decision.

for the record, i maintain that the ban is daft (for reasons similar to hannan), but that they have the right to be daft if that is their want (for reasons similar to hannan).

Well, you reap what you sow.

EDIT:

tell me

It's a tower from where the call to prayer is announced, and they're about as extreme as Church spires.
