Switzerland Bans Burqa

“Those who want to integrate are welcome irrespective of their religion,” explained Giorgio Ghiringhelli, who wrote the proposal. “But those who rebuff our values and aim to build a parallel society based on religious laws, and want to place it over our society, are not welcome.” 

So does this make the people of Switzerland racist or Islamophobic ?

People can say whatever they want as long as they don't lie. I see no problem with criticising religion. I freqently criticise my own religion.

This makes the Swiss completely reasonable. The purpose of immigration is to integrate. Muslims do not Intend to integrate into any western society. Their purpose is to spread Islam.

The purpose of immigration is to integrate.

Says who?

“But those who rebuff our values and aim to build a parallel society based on religious laws, and want to place it over our society, are not welcome.”

I disagree that wearing religious garb is wanting to put religious laws in place over someone else's society, no one else is forced to participate.

This makes the Swiss completely reasonable

Fining people for wearing religious garb is reasonable? If in an Islamic state were to fine for people wearing Yamaka's I would think people would find that to infringe on the religious rights of those who wear Yamaka's. I would not say any government wanting to tell people how and where to practice their religion is reasonable.

The source breitbart makes a false comparison between this ban and the one France has instated. No surprise that this slanted "news" source leaves out important parts of Frances "burka ban" like the supposed "ban" from in France does not target a religion nor burkas specifically. Frances measure instead bans any covering of the face in a public place, and also applied to hoods and helmets when not worn on a motor vehicle.

Re: " If in an Islamic state were to fine for people wearing Yamaka's I would think people would find that to infringe on the religious rights of those who wear Yamaka's. "

What Islamic dominated country governed by Sharia Law upholds non Islamic religious rights? None. If you are not Muslim, you are a dhimmi, a second class citizen who is suppose to pay a tax for not being Muslim

What is it about these Muslims? They're either hiding behind beards, ski-masks or burqas. They must have something to hide. I wonder whatever that could be. If the Islamic filth wish to practice the customs and practices of their backward religion then let them stay in Ally Bongo land where they can ''burpa'' all day and praise Allah until the rats come home. Let the governments of the west say to the filth what I said to my workers when I had my own business, if there's anything you don't like here, close the door behind you from the outside and don't ever darken our towels again.

Brother Anthrim...!!

Please!!firsty and most importantly we all should be able to know that islam doesnt approve violence and when you read and if you read the quran with proper illustrations you will all come to know that islam like many other religions promote peace and freedom..

lets talk about Christianity..if we go on to look the verses of Christianity we will come to know that jesus had beard and her mother weared scarf just like a muslim women does..

Sorry to say but if you say "They're either hiding behind beards, ski-masks or burqas."

you are not only humiliating the muslim community their rights but also humiliating mary the mother of jesus and humiliating jesus himself.

PLZ Do not judge islam by looking into such political organisations which works for their own profit IN THE NAME OF ISLAM...IF THEY REALLY OBEYED ISLAMIC LAWS THEN QURAN STATES THAT IF YOU KILL A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS INNOCENT IT IS AS THOUGH YOU HAVE KILLED THE WHOLE OF HUMANITY AND YOU ARE NOT CONSIDERED MUSLIM ANYMORE...

ITS A PERSONAL REQUEST TO ALL VIEWERS TO NOT USE WORDS OR PHRASES THAT HURT ANY COMMUNITY..IT A TIME WHERE MUSLIMS NEED HELP FROM EDUCATED PEOPLE AND IF YOU MOCK THEM THEY FEEL HUMILIATED AND BECOME EXTREME AND THIS IS WHAT ORGANISATIONS LIKE ISIS WANTS!!SO THAT THEY CAN LURE YOUTH IN THE NAME OF ISLAM!!

Well, firstly, My name is ''Antrim'', ( a county in Northern Ireland) and secondly, permit me to point out that I am not your brother, nor am I your anything. Be advised that I am not a believer in any of the crackpot man made religions including Christianity. Christianity is based on the Bible which is a book of many well meaning authors who were the scholars of their times and who tried to explain the mysteries of the universe and the meaning of life for the benefit of the largely backward and uneducated populations of the Holy lands. We've somehow graduated from;- ''twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are. We have a lot to learn but we do know what stars are and why the light emanating from these distant suns appears to twinkle. Islam was written exclusively by the paedophile, so called prophet Muhammad whose work is ridiculously self contradictory. Christianity preached a peace which it never achieved whereas Islam came unashamedly with sword in hand. ''DEATH TO THE INFIDEL'', i.e, non Muslims, doesn't sound to me like a religion of tolerance and peace. To make myself clear, I am totally unconcerned about whatever emotions Muslims may or may not feel about the loathing I feel for the religion which spawned the most barbaric terrorist organization in existence . My only concern is for the victims of the Muslim filth who continue to slaughter and maim innocent citizens and destroy our cities. If Muslims are insufficiently conversant with their Koran, as selectively presented by you, and can be made to believe something which is contrary to it's teachings then none of them can be trusted and the sooner the long and arduous task of repatriation of all Muslims back to their cesspit countries the better. I have never heard or know of any significant Islamic group openly and unequivocally denounce I.S. and call for Muslims to become good citizens, obey the laws and adopt the values of their adopted countries just as the Jews do. Unlike Muslims who lurk behind their burqas, beards and terrorist ski masks, the Jewish people are, generally speaking, law abiding citizens who are an asset to the societies in which they live. If Muslims desire to attain respect and acceptance in the western communities which they infest they are going to have to work at it and realize that they are the aliens in western countries where our cherished principles and values of free speech and expression, equality for all, regardless of gender or ethnic background have evolved over many centuries. The rights of Muslims are protected by law in most, if not all western nations and enjoy a freedom which westerners residing in Muslim countries can only dream of. The mass slaughter of Christians by the Muslim filth in countries such as kenya and Nigeria continues unabated and you, you dirty edgit, ask me to show more respect and tolerance towards Muslims. It's near bloody time that Muslims showed more respect for Christians and apologized for their demonic actions. I repeat;- if there is anything about western culture, customs and practices which Muslims dislike, then, let them mount their sweaty camels with their tents, pots and pans and head back to the desert where you can yodel to Allah until they're hoarse. A line must be drawn in the sand ( no pun intended) sooner or later with sooner being the better option.

Religion of peace? More like the religion of pieces. Islam does not promote peace and freedom, it promotes the opposite.

Islam, The Truth

No, it makes them practical; they are acknowledging reality. It is Islam that is bigoted and democraticphobia.
