[QUOTE="Occams Barber, post: 71657204, member: 313365"] The OP was about an Australian Senator wearing a burqa in the Senate. This is the equivalent of a Senator dressing up as a mock priest or a fake nun. In the context of the Australian Parliament the act was insulting. The remainder of your post seems to rest on the premise that the burqa will prevent you getting a job ergo you are a drag on the unemployment benefit system. How do you know that burqa wearing women "more often than not apply for unemployment benefits"? If I choose to get tattoos all over my face I probably limit my access to a job. So does inappropriate dress or personal hygiene but you would not advocate laws outlawing these practices. The issue is about personal freedom Lingualgnota. I find your last paragraph questioning the sincerity of Moslem belief totally insulting in keeping with the rest of your post. [/QUOTE]
