    Since they allow turbans, probably wouldn't have a leg to stand on for banning hijabs.

    LOL. Almost those exact words came to mind as soon as I saw the headline.

    Pretty much. I remember there was a big fuss over that back when. People got over it though, at least I think so.

    Meh, it's not a big deal and some Muslim women look good wearing the hijab.

    I'm all in favor, as long as the pastafarians are allowed their headgear too.

    Yup... but...

    I met a Moroccan couple a while ago while working for Stat Can. We've stayed in contact since then and when I see his car parked at his place, I stop by to say hello and talk awhile. I'd always seen his wife with the hijab but at one point she came out to the kitchen without it. I looked at her bright red hair and asked her husband why she had to hide that.

    Absolutely beautiful head of hair. :lol:

    How long before all women in the RCMP have to wear the hijab so they don't offend the woglodytes? :idea:

    Could be worse. These four fine lassies represent the Scottish Hijab Police.



    Police Scotland just 'unveiled' a new hijab uniform.

    I feel safer already.

    Actually, I think the picture looks like something out of a Monty Python skit - "No one expects the Scotch-hijab police!"
