  • ABSURD, why make a big deal over a dress, u see Africans wearing their giant crap and no one says anything. I agree with the fact that harassment by their husbands/community is disgusting, but what about the Muslims that want/need to wear it! P.S. the majority of this harassment happens in the Middle East countires, so let their government take care of it. Foreign affairs will only anger them more. AND that Irshad girl is a total bitch.

  • why not just ban people, because we're all ignorant especially Irshad Manji, who is a known feminist dyke who says whatever garbage that comes out of her mouth wether true or not. Many women have said , they wear it because they want to , not because of any man forceing them to, and ofcourse Irshad Manji is a known Muslim hater from way back

  • why so angry irshad?? why?

  • I think Reza should be forced to wear a burka!

  • I like burqas there cool :)

  • The FACE is a persons identity! By wearing a burqa . . . Islam is taking away a womens identity. They all look the same! How would you pick one out up in a line-up?

    What does their passport show . . 2 eyes? PUL-EEASE get real . . . the burka is all about removing womens rights!

  • Irshad Manji seems angry at something... can anyone guess what is that? :)

  • So EvilDeadJoe... banning the burqa because Islam is evil and offensive because mainstream media tells you so is nothing like fascist nazi-like ideology right? After all, the NSDP only convinced almost all of Germany that the Jews too were evil and greedy because "they said so" therefore pushing people to have opinions like you saying that Islam and Muslims should banned frm Europe just as Jews were meant to be banned from Germany in the 1930s. Ur enslaved by facist ideology already. wake up

  • They should go further than banning the burqa, they should ban Islam and bar immigration from muslim dominated countries before this fascist nazi-like ideology enslaves us all.

  • @omkhan: yes, but most muslim women don't choose to wear this attire, they are forced into it as a way to perpetuate repression towards women.

    And, BTW, one of the most fundamental principles of western law is that you are NOT free to renounce your rights. Even if you want to be a slave out of your own will, in a western society you are not free to do so.
