Reader comment on item: Niqabs and Burqas as Security Threats
in response to reader comment: burqa and niqab

Nichola,

The world is full of evil and so much evil comes from those closest to you. Men in the Muslim world kill their own daughters because they were raped! Women are dragged through the streets being beaten and stoned to death. NO community or people are spared the reality that people can be sick and disgusting.

But the fact remains that this article is talking about a specific incident that is completely foreign to the community it happened in. You are in Saudi Arabia right? What if a bank in Mecca was robbed by a man or woman wearing a huge cross, and was dressed like a priest? It would be out of the ordinary and on the front page of every newspaper there. Get it?
