Not in itself.

But who was talking ? A representative sample of danish people, or a person with an agenda?

I have no idea, I didnt listen to it.

But it doesnt sound representative. Was there anybody with an opposite view or comment ?

It was a Danish journalist who was explaining the circumstances about the law . and how the lady in question came to be arrested and fined.

He had no agenda and gave no particular opinion . I listen to Radio 4 a lot , rarely watch T.V

Burka Niqab ban in France.

Belgium ban on full face veil


Netherlands burkas, ski goggles n helmets.....

Italy....several towns have bans in place

Denmark, approved a bill this year to ban muslim full face veil.


What a pile of inaccurate poo !
 
What a dumb statement. Usual point scoring carp.

Which religions haveva full face veil?

If a ban on face veils is imposed, which religious group would it mostly, or entirely effect?


Come back when you understand the Danish laws in question !

You are miles off !

Its not point scoring when you concede so many own goals.
 
The law in France does not ban Burka or Niqabs.
It bans full face coverings of any sort.

Loi interdisant la dissimulation du visage dans l'espace public
Translation:
Act prohibiting concealment of the face in public space.
"the ban on the wearing of face-covering headgear, including masks, helmets, balaclavas, niqabs and other veils covering the face in public places"
The Burka is only affected if it covers the face.

Im happy to stand corrected, but would add, such a ban affects burka wearers disproportionately, since it is a key feature of that religion.

Ah bless Yafo the point scorer is a bit touchy......must be because he is wrong so often.

Go and calm down for a bit, twinings do a nice chamomile tea (y)
 
The first time I sae women in full burkas, in a hotel, I found quite unnerving.

There is a mixed argument for bans on full face veils:

a burka is seen as oppression of women so a ban can be argued as a positive.

For anti terrorism of course.

A ban can also be argued as oppressing womens freedom in choosing what they want to wear......circular argument though.
 
Following the end of the Second World War we lived in a paradise (rationing poverty etc )still better than most countries in the world. Now we live in a multi cultural paradise where we discuss women with faces covered in hotels instead of chucking them out for offending European values

Typical Yafo deflection.
 
Well researched, not.

The law in Denmark is about face covering in public. It doesnt state with what. Its not a racist law

No link or proof provided.

How is it not a racist law, if it affects a religious group more.
 
Typical Yafo deflection.

Earlier you got on your high horse and attempted to say I was wrong.

You failed to do so.

Now, you want me to prove it to you.

If you thought you knew different to me you wouldnt need me to prove it. You would produce your evidence to support what you said.

Im not providing you any link. But how do you think I knew about the law? Go and find out. The information is out there.

To restate . The law is about face covering in public. It does not state, with what. It does not pick on a certain set of people.

Please, prove me wrong. Failure to do so exposes yourself. Avoid another own goal ?

You are so delicate.

Does a group of youths in hoodies and face masks not intimidate you ?

Do you think they could intimidate others?

Or is it only certain face coverings, or certain people that affect you ?

I said unnerving, not intimidating. Not the same

If you are going to respond please make sure you understand the words you use. There are online dictionaries to help.
