deadman Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 You wouldn't be allowed to wear a mask in a shop would you? Crash helmets aren't allowed. I'm not saying I'd ban them, but what is to stop criminals wearing them in light of this? http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/article.aspx?cp-...entid=149390685 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concrete Jungle Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 It is heartening to see robbers adapting multiculturalism for their own innovative theft of debt-based currency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theboltonfury Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 FFS I am sick to death of hearing about this lot. It was bad enough when the old crone Lumley got involved. As it happens, I think we should ban them, definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Executive Sadman Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Its ridiculous. Theyre ridiculous Religion is ridiculous. Robbers or not, people walking around under bedsheets belongs in the dark ages. That we even consider changing dress codes to discriminate between the enlightened and the fairy tale believing morons shows we cant be taken seriously as a modern society.

SHERWICK Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Robbers or not, people walking around under bedsheets belongs in the dark ages. Interesting point that. Is there anything actually wrong with people pining for days gone by and wanting to live life 'like it was in the good old days'? Only difference seems to be that many here believe the good old days were about 50 years ago, while this bedsheet-wearing lot believe the good old days were about 500 years ago!

There is when the rest of us have to abide by dress codes. No discrimination means one rule for all, not bending over backwards to accomodate a load of brainwashed idiots. Everyone should be able to wear or not wear what they want where they want when they want. If not, people should at least be treated equally. Religion has no more sound foundation than star wars.

I.e. the burkha should not be allowed. Unfortunately you cannot ban it on religious grounds or you'd have to ban all other religious garb. So, they'll have to ban it on some other pretext. But I hope they ban it one way or another asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moley Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I once worked with someone who suddenly started coming in dressed in a chador/burkha. As I am originally from Wales I decided to start wearing this getup, but was told not to take the piss. http://www.stockphotography.co.uk/Upload/S...arked/10102.jpg Oh, and this made me laugh. http://www.theonion.com/content/news/woman...ndemns_woman_in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingding Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 If they were banned I wouldn't mourn their departure. I have always seen them as the clothing equivalent of "f*ck you Britain". I think it should be shop-owners discretion whether or not they allowed Burkhas into their store, if they banned them I wouldn't blame them however you can imagine the inevitable sh*tstorm that would follow that decision.

Absolutely, if a shop keeper doesn't want to run the risk getting robbed by someone wearing one, then they can choose not to let them in the shop. I cant see this is something that can be dealt with by yet more legislation. The thought of people being told what they can and cant wear by government is ridiculous.

Skirmish Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Yes they should be banned. Outrageous. Don't you know that this is an islamic country? Or at least parts of it nearly are.

codeine Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Don't think it should be banned. People should be able to wear whatever, if that means black Ninja-esque fancy dress, that's fine by me. I don't want Labour telling us what we can and cannot wear. Equally, shops should be able to stop people wearing them from entering their premises without fear of idiotic "equality" Council workers paying them a visit. The fact that this is being debated shows already that the Government has far overreached itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twatmangle Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I think everyone in the UK should wear a burkha all the time. Not to promote political and religous tolerance, but to ****** up the CCTV camera culture. If every ******er went around dressed head to toe like a ******ing ninja then they might as well not bother with the cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
