"The Times" is a common name for newspapers. Like Examiner, Observer, Gazette, Post etc.

There's a English one too. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/
There's also The Financial Times and The New York Times.

It took me a minute to get what you meant too. Don't worry; I don't think you caused any offence.

 

[The Curr]

No, I'm not offended in the slightest. I just didn't get the "joke".

I never understood the Burqa or Niqab myself.

Still that being said, I think if women want to wear it then they should be allowed to, but thats European freedom for you.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Yea, you Scots should know.

 

[Fred]

At least in Scotland we don't discriminate.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

This would never happen in Belg.......

 

[Fred]

Man this would have been 25 pages long already if a certain someone was around.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Now we'll have over 15 pages because you had to mention certain someone.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Ohh yea, he'd be insatiable.

Only if certain whiners(read: You, Hoori and Alen) open up that can of worms again

In all seriousness, banning of wearing burqas makes as much sense as banning the wearing of hats.

It's a poor attempt to Europeanize muslims. When governments attempt these cultural changes at such a drastic measure it usually leads to a even more separatist approach from the respective communities.

True.

If I was the ruler of my own country, I'd ban these things as well. They are just simply idiotic.

I wouldn't ban practicing Islam, however. That would be just as dumb as enforcing burqas.

Technically you aren't banning anything Islamic if you actually do ban Burqa's, its more of a cultural phenomena really, but still, people should be allowed to wear it if they wanted to.

People should wear what they want, but in certain places I don't feel comfortable seeing people in full body suits where anything can be concealed. Airports for example, I'm a nervous flyer as it is without people causing me more stress.
