Angela Merkel calls for burqa ban
- Thread starter UCFWayne
- Start date
I was flying out of JFK last week and saw the full burka thing and I just laughed at the couple. I could care less about whether she wears it or not but the insecurity of the guy with her that he needs to keep her covered up is laughable in my mind.
It's a calculated political move. Far-right parties are starting to gain in popularity throughout Europe and Merkel is the last Euro-centered political figure.
Her own party was calling for it and there was a study that in the whole country only a couple hundred people even where full burqas. So...call for the ban, appease party and the right-wingers and effect few people. It's a smart move on her behalf, even though she shouldn't need to do it.

It's a few hundred? Ok. It only takes 2-3 people in a burqa with a bomb underneath to inflict carnage. It's more than just "appeasing right wingers"; there is a legit security concern when your country is being targeted by hardline Islamic militants whose known tactic is to disguise fighters under burqas. Just after I left the UAE last year, a US school teacher was killed in a mall by a Jihadist disguised as a woman wearing a burqa.
I need not explain the challenges that a burqa poses when you're needing to identify someone and track them down.
A burqa is a practice amongst the hardliners in Islam. If people absolutely must wear one and practice this, then fine, there are plenty countries in the Middle East to move to.
Globalist cvnt trying a nationalist redemption arc - fvck right in the pvssy

You can do the same thing with a backpack, right? Ban backpacks! You know what kills more people than burkas? Guns. Should we ban guns? Such hypocrisy.
Merkel thinks this tiny, insignificant change will make Germans okay with the flooding of their nation with violent rapists and murderers. Burn in hell!
If the electorate fall for this garbage, they deserve everything that's coming to them....without inconveniencing her pet goat lovers

1. The school teacher who got killed was not disguised as a woman in a burqa, she was a woman in a burqa, who happened to kill a school teacher. She just happened to be an extremist as well, unfortunately, they exist.
2. Other than this instance, can you inform me of another attack that involved someone in a burqa?
To be honest, burqa's are kinda horrible anyway, they're repressive and are usually ordered to be worn by a controlling man. I do think its a political move but your rant about it being a severe security threat is a bit much. There are much more pressing security threats.
Well, it took precisely 3 seconds to search Google to find plenty of examples, but here's just one:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/pakistan-male-suicide-bomber-wearing-burqa-kills-10-shia-mosque-1525296
I see about two examples when I google in the last 6 years.
Like I said, I think you're over-exaggerating this "threat". The threat is terrorists, not burkas.
And I think you're overplaying this "moral crusade" in defense of the burqa. Unlike Europeans, you do not have swarms of Jihadists running around your neighborhood and cities on a daily basis. It's easy to sit in Orlando or wherever you are and say this. It's not as easy when these people can leave Syria and get to your country without ever having to get on an airplane.
This is where you liberals lose me, and crack me up. You'll insist that a family deciding a woman will stay home to raise a child is OPRESSIVE! and DANGEROUS SEXISM! yet will then defend Muslim men throwing their wives into full burqas. A Christian baker in some rural town not making a cake for a gay wedding = a moral threat to society, yet the allowances of the most hardline Islamic fundamentalist ideals is no big deal.
I'm reading I am Malala and she mentions people being scared of women wearing burkas when the Sharia Law was introduced in her region, as a result of suicide bombers often wearing them. Banning burkas will just make them use something else, but they are often used to hide things.
I didn't say any of that stuff. I actually said the complete opposite above. You've gone full psycho, bro. Anytime I write anything it's instant TRIGGERED with you. Holy cow.
I take a different view on this ban. Radical Islamic terrorism is looking to accomplish one thing: take down the west. They can't do that through force so they attack the psychological parts of the society that are vulnerable in the hope that we will change over time. Things like banning a Burqa go against ideas like Freedom of expression and chisel away at the foundation of the west. Other things like NSA spying/tapping on citizen communications infringes on the 4th amendment and also chisels away at our foundation. All of this in the name of security. In this scenario, the threat of using a Burqa to conceal a terror attack certainly exists, but how immediate is that threat and what other means exist to interdict such an attempt. This seems like a simplistic answer to a complex situation and an answer that may set a precedent for the future.
Clear burqas are the obvious answer
I think there may be some irony in there ....
you can see right through it ...

It is counter-intuitive to ban the burqa.
By allowing them to be themselves, act and look different in our 'free' society, they will continually be alienated and turn more people against them. They are the black sheep and we need to keep it this way.
While were at it, we should export feminism to the middle east and watch it destroy their society the same way it's destroyed the west.

Did you actually laugh right at him? Or did you run off scared around the corner because burka, and then started laughing once you were away from him? I'm guessing the latter.
