It's winter, i walk into town along a slush covered road, down a long hill - a woman struggles uphill carrying several bags of shopping - wearing a full burqa..the wind is almost blowing her backwards and she is struggling - my thoughts are 'cumbersome outfit for this climate'. i walk past the local synagogue, some Hassidic men are chatting outside most have one hand on their head, one man is picking his hat up and brushing slush off from it - my thoughts are 'im glad im wearing an elasticated beanie in this wind'\nlater on i walk past my local nightclub and there is a long line of young girls wearing very short skirts, high heels and sleeveless tops - with matching blue skin, my thoughts are twofold, first - hypothermia someone should tell them, second is -fashion, it may look cool in Naples, but this far north - in winter?...ridiculous.\npoint is, people wear clothing for various reasons, religious, cultural, social or just comfort. they dont choose to wear items because they desire to intimidate, but because it appeals to them, or their sense of self or cultural or religious identity.\nwe should respect that.\nif a piece of clothing intimidates or frightens you so much, you may have some deep psychological issues.

I am white and i get followed in almost every store cause i have a beard and long hair i was going to a documentary on this a few weeks full beard and long hair and few weeks short hair clean shaven just to show proof that everywhere you go beards bring heat on you even police do not respect a man with a beard hes automatically the bad guy in every situation

What's going on here? How is this man acting bossy after all he's done? I live in China and believe me, you can't do this in China. You will be deported and everything you have will be seized without a single reason. How is he still in Canada? Why would the Chinese respect the Canadian gov't if you won't take actions on people who commit such crimes in the country?

Justin trudeau has 2 degrees A masters and had started on an engineering program he unites his country acknowledges past injustice to the natives he treats everyone with respect he is smart and very mature for his relatively young age and he is probably the most goodlooking world leader today...\nDrumpf is on the other hand an uneducated rich man's son who dropped out of college not to found google but to dodge millitary draftings...lol...he is clearly sexist & news just came out that the dotard may have actually inherited $400 M capital lol & not the famous 'measly' 1m dollars ...turns out he is not a very good businessman either...drumpf is probably the most divisive us president he is over 70 yet ridiculously immature for his age...he throws tantrums at the slightest criticism...the donald is a global laughing stock not respected at all by the world leaders at the UN...He is also probably the ugliest world leader alive...orange face white hair & all...lol...he has made USA politics funny again(i laugh my ass off whenever he holds a press conference)...i give him that...only fools would\nwant someone like this as their leader...\nBut then again American conservatives arent exactly geniuses...hahaha

They are very nice and warm. It is easy to fall into this trap. Once your in, then the fun starts...SHARIA girls. Oh and take the beating from your man and give him respect because He is twice as worthy as you... that's IN the HADITH.

They want every thing handed to them on a plate. Gimme gimme This man has spent 15 years in the US He probably speaks English but gives us no respect by speaking only Spanish. We are not your saviours! Fix your own countries and leave ours alone!!!!!

the man that are islamic make their women use the cover on their body is because they are not respect their women, as they need to be tread it like that, also the cloth do not make you more holly or better person or more closer to God is in your heart and in your soul in the respect of your faith.

As a man, if I choose to wear a balaclava while I do my banking I will be arrested. If it truly is a choice and not a religious tenet then they should have to show their faces like every one else does in certain situations. (court, drivers licence, banking...etc). Show some respect to the culture that you are living in please

Can we agree that we are all human being we should all respect each other either we are black,white or yellow and from either religions?first,  In islam,in The quran there is writted that we should respect christianity, jews.. Or we Will face muhammad(pboh) on The day of judgjment Also we shouldnt make differance between A Man black or white judging by The fact The creation of god. ive saw alot of comment here of threating islam of every kind of names and some muslim calling them morons: you should show sbar to UR feloows, its discusting sriously because of terrorist who could be SEEn as A christian jew hindu or muslim but we Forget The fact that terrorism HAS NO RELIGION, show me one Book where theyve righted to kill ppl??? People have distroyed the name of jihad that means to go ontO A war if and only somewone attacks you,only for auto defense. See im A muslim, I have tons of multicultural friends theyve said alot of things in front of me about islam but i have explained them about MY true religion And theyve agrreed one of them converted and she wore the niqab. Niqab,hijab,burka arent A signification of autority of mans far from there islam supports women and respect them more THAn U can imagine, in the quran No men have right to Touch a women, he should respect her, women should keep their beauty only for their husbands and the mans should lower their gaze!!islam forces no one to do something because once youve read the quran and have the faith the commendmens writted arent A big deall. Everything in the quran is logical and just but the new generation ruined it all. Let me tell you brother and sisters if U see someone that is rich wont U think that their Family is rich too? Its The same thing for islam ppl saw ppl saying that they where muslim and killing ppl beating women and raping poor kids while it is Strictly banned in islam. So I blame muslim who doesnt act well to show example and too all others human who juge without knowing. And just one thing there is alot of ppl that pass themselve as muslim just by putting on A beard and by saying Allah hu akbar .Why cant we live all together why is there that much racism why cant we LOVE and do peace like islam shows and all other religion because their is one god and we all know it next it for U to judge but dont judge without knowing because they could be A girl who look mean but is kind vice versa. On that salam oualeykoum, bye and have A good day and rest of Life . \nMay Allah guide us all. May god guide us all.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh lets call it what it really is ... It's *jealousy* \n\nThey know they're fucked up men with fucked up ideologies and know there are better men for their women that would respect them for who they are and not just sex tools. Talk to one in public with their man around ... and then watch her husband act like a little *jealous toad*\n\n@ 4:57 You can hear and see her pause ... she knows her man told her to wear it!!

I live in London but I'm not Brit and I truly love this Country,but there's no way a bunch of muslim can tell me not to have a beer while waiting for the bus.Should I visit some islamic town I'd never say a man hey don't wear those clothes or cut that beard.If you were not born in here but you want to live here well then respect the society who's hosting you and get a life.Muslims,get a life for god's sake and stop with the sharia bullshit.
