Ban the Burka
Yes, yes, we all know why France banned the burka - because it's France. And if the New Conservative Government of Canada banned the burka it would just be bigotry without the cultural mitigating factors that France can get away with because it's France. But if a Liberal government banned the burka it would be a good thing. The burka should be banned for all the right reasons.
Don't agree? Okay. But what if Afghanistan banned the burka? Wouldn't that be something to celebrate?
Of course it would. So cut the crap everybody. The burka is a cloth prison and instrument of oppression used against Muslim women by Muslim men in countries where women have no rights at all. Want to wear the burka here in Canada because you converted to Islam and are pretending the burka has some sort of religious significance?
Go tell your sisters in Afghanistan all about it.
