*DEBATE* Should Muslim women be allowed to wear veils that show just their eyes?

[MrBlown]

Chavs throwing stones is antisocial, I don't see you getting them to stop it?

MrBlown.

[DCeption]

I dont care do as the please. Many people in UK were hoodys which is only just revealing more, and its only a small majority of terrorists. So beasically yes they should be allowed to

[Sentrax]

Heh.. They actually listened to my idea!
Well, you know what I think, I think the veils are intimidating. That's in my opinion.

Chavs are differnet, We do tell chavs not to throw stones but their criminals not religous,If we told Muslims tommorow that we were banning Veils in public then the Good ones who WANT to be in our country wouldn't have a problem with it because they supposeidly ran away from torture etc in their own countrys so surely us asking them not to wear something in public wouldn't hurt them that much and the ones who riot can be thown out - If you don't like this Country - THEN LEAVE !

I agree, a bit.

I agree that if they are in our country, they should live our way of live.

And before someone says it, yes: if we went to THEIR country then we should live THIER way of life.

Are way of life is freedom of exspresion, freedom of choise, Aka we dont force people to do things. Its up to them if they want to ware a headscarf, just as its up to anyone else if they want to ware a hoody, cross round the neck, or anything else "/
If you start deniying these freedoms, where turning in to a dictatorship, insted of keeping the essents of britain, which is freedom.

Nobody has asked them to remove them permanantly, it's like a mark of respect, as i said previously.. motor cyclists take off their helmets when entering a building, why should muslim people be any damn different. They bug the hell outta me these days, simply because.. everythings racist, well sorry but it's our damn country, if you can't follow simple things, go home.

Some of those comments were fairly inaccurate, such as motor cyclists taking off there helmets - motor cycling isn't a religion. I admit that I know very little on the subject of veils and what the rules or expectations of Muslim women wearing them are, but I'm pretty sure that it's something that some do, and we should respect them for it. Also, everybody seems to be telling them to get out of the country, but quite a few were born, and have always lived, in this country, even if there parents or grandparents or whatever haven't. I think that a very large number of the posts in this thread are either racist, or not entirely fair to the Muslim community in Britain. Let them wear what they want - they are British Citizens just like most of us, so they should be allowed to wear exactly what they want in Public in terms of veils.

The world is changing, I don't think England will stay a christian country forever.


Christians have killed more people throughout history.


I don't believe there was a rule which says muslim women can't wear a veil?

I believe muslim women should have the right to wear a veil. It's part of their religious practice. If you force them not to wear it, it's just like forcing a christian not to wear a cross, which seems abit unfair to me.

The UK probably will stay a christian country for a long time, something like 70% of the population class themselves as christian.

I somehow doubt christians have killed more people in history, and history isn't important, it's now that is, and i don't see christians blowing themselves up?

Nobody said there was a rule *******, that's what this whole thread is about.

And i doubt any christian would really mind all that much if someone asked them to take off their cross, whereas muslims kick up hell at the suggestion of removing their veil, screaming racism, as always.
they claim racism at every little thing and it's stupid.

And I think Britain is too good to people like muslims, if we moved to a muslim country, we would be expected to life the way they do, and it should be the same here.
if they're going to come into this country and claim benefits and stuff, they should have to live our way of life.
