Latvia to ban Islamic veils

[Kubumba Tribe]

But it's still the same God we all worship. I say God a lot of times too. i also say Allah. We all worship the same God and believe in the Day of Judgment. We just practice and interpret differently.

No, we do not worship the same God. It is a different one. Nothing is wrong with that.
If we really worshipped the same God, yet interpreted it differently, then we would have a less different mindset. Christians are Christians because they mainly base their ideas off the teachings of Jesus Christ, while Muslims mainly base it upon Muhammad's teachings, whilst Jews base their own upon Abraham's ideas. Although they do all refer to Abraham, the differences are so large that they aren't just different denominations of one 'World Monotheism', but three different religions.

I know that, but we still worship God. My God is your God. Think about it. Christian, Muslims and Jews say and worship the same God. But Christians believe Allah has a son, we Muslims believe Muhammad is our last prophet, and Jews believe a Messiah. But we all believe in God

Veils can be used to hide the identity of terrorists.

As shown in Paris and Belgium.

And to show faith and worshiping Allah (SWT).

So a veil was used by a murderer to flee the country, in stark contrast to rationales for bans that they would hide suicide attackers and bombers like ninja masters until it's too late.

They hide the identity of people. And that can be used to escape arrest and evade legitimate surveillance

And of course one instance of airport security fucking up on facial exams is proof that veils are dangerous. It's amazing there was even a mugshot in the first place!

True, but it seems a bit weak of an argument as long as we aren't faced with a wave of criminals using hijab components to flee justice.

Hijabs are ninja tools. There could be another Paris-scale attack and authorities will overlook the hijab-wearing crowd heading to the departure line.

Authorities will be too busy overlooking the real attackers to worry about 'em.

I thought ninjas were farmers with spears who assassinated people and ran into crowds. Must have been bad ninjas if the hijab is so important to ninja success.

I don't understand the boundless stupidity these authorities have.

They're exactly like the invisibility cloak from Erik the Viking, except every European is King Arnulf.

I'm sure even the terrorists themselves don't. The news of the red flags being ignored in both Paris and Brussels must've invigorated them.

I didn't know other people actually watched that movie.

*Claps for Latvia*

Keep up the good work Latvia, at least you are aware of the Muslim invasion of Europe. Do what you can to protect your people and your culture.

So aware of it that they still have full, open relations with the original Islamic State: Saudi Arabia. But, yeah, let's applaud 'em.

I don't see a problem here, religion should have no place in public life anyway. Latvia should be consistent on this and ban other religious trappings in public spaces aswell.

I hope you didn't drop your fedora when you were tipping it, Jetan.

But when we in Turkey had it...

"OMG TURKS SO REPRESSIVE AMAGERD GET DEMOCRATIC NOOBS" was what the entire West was crying.

I'm pretty sure most who think's it's bullshit in Turkey also think it's bullshit in Latvia.

Yes, sure.

Me, I'm not too sure it was bullshit in Turkey. We let them have what they want, and here we are today. Granted, the Islamists in Turkey used religion as a tool to further their political interests. I doubt Muslims in Europe can ever realistically accomplish that.

However, in the event of them trying to exert political pressure via religion, they must be crushed with the most brutal and fear-inspiring methods possible, beaten down so viciously that they will fear to look up at the Sun for fear of another iron rod smashing into their faces for a thousand years. Islamists deserve nothing better.

I'm not so sure what your point is here. Are you saying that allowing the burqa/niqab in Turkey has led to Islamists gaining power?

And you call ISIS terrorists and you're not?

Latvian culture has been pretty well preserved I'd say. As much as I love the country, this ban is pointless, and just as bad as forcing everyone to wear something.

Latvians were almost a minority in their country 30 years ago. Currently they make 60% of Latvian population so there is a reason why they might be more protective about their culture than people in Western Europe. If people in Latvia think that current measures are necessary then it is up to them. It's their country.

they'd be within their rights to kneejerk their way to victory ejaculation.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Sure, but I can still disagree with them. I'm an American so I clearly know what's best for everyone.
