Thread: more reasons to ban burqas

Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- Taliban militants attacked a hotel near Kabul on Friday and seized dozens of hostages, sparking a fierce gun battle with Afghan and NATO troops that left 26 people dead, authorities said.

The standoff, which lasted 11 hours, ended with the deaths of all seven militants, police said. The militants killed 15 civilians, a police officer and three security guards, Kabul police chief Mohammad Ayoub Salangi said.

By the end of the siege, police had rescued all the remaining 50 civilians held hostage in the hotel, according to Salangi.
Earlier, he had said there were five militants, but revised the number as more details emerged.

Police said they found burqas in the vehicle the attackers used to bring in explosives to the hotel, an indication that some were dressed as women. A burqa is an outer garment worn by Muslim women to cover their bodies.

Muslims have no respect for their own Islamic tradition and religion.

Banning burqas is unconstitutional.

Well, it's also unnecessary, because the percentage of women that wear/are forced to wear burqas is so tiny it's a waste of time and money.

It's not, and it's not happening.

I halfway agree with you...it's a waste of time and money, but unconstitutional? I just don't remember that wording in that great document.

Why don't you bully-boys mind your own business and stop interfering with what you know nothing about?

I wish Americans would stop scaring themselves with that Caliphate nonsnse.

Muslims are the problem, not burqas.
And by muslims I am not merely referring to religion.

I hate these types of distracting issues. It is just like in the USA were they talk about denying "amnesty" in the context of illegal immigration debate.
It really makes little difference.

Full burqas should be banned in government buildings. No one should be allowed to wear a mask, for security reasons. Even before all the muslims, anyone who went around wearing a mask would be treated with suspicion by the police (unless it was at a parade). It should be no different with burqa-wearers.

'Should' is one of those words that allows the racists and others to sound off. How do you plan to impose this racist crap?
