Something from my neighborhood, strange that it is news in the UK. www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42671385 Bassically, an 11 year old girl claims to have been a victim of hijab assault. Now, to be very clear: I don't support this kind of thing. Sure, I have been known to criticize Islam from (ahem) time to time. That said, I strongly condemn attacks on individual Muslims in Canada. 'Nuff said, for now.

That is horrible. Poor girl. Raised in an oppressive religion, and facing scary oppression and assault on the outside. Where are such Muslim children to feel safe?
This drives western Muslims into separatist religious communities, and forestalls the current Islamic reformation overall.
As always, leave the kids out of it.

I couldn't agree more / thanks for the good post. Myself, I believe in a secular government, and, a secular school system. That way (in theory), everyone is treated equal.

(counts double if you're a Prophet, Rabbi, or Priest) I don't believe in the use of the hijab as a thing, as it has been used as a way for conservative Muslims to oppress their women - like the burka. (Which, by the way, is a Babylonian/Assyrian invention, used to denote which women were married.) That said, trying to cut a hijab off of someone is assault, and must never be done. If you want to stop the use of such things, use education and persuasion.

Although the hijab attack did not happen, the horror just deepens in some ways, as now we know this girl was fed a story, and made to lie.
Or, maybe she made it up herself, having gone psychotic from being brought up in radical Islam.
Sadly, these things do happen. Tiwana Brawley beat herself up and smeared herself in feces to claim it was a racial attack, years ago.
