Hi All
I hear your frustration and anger however individuals under the burqa are innocent women.

You all have brilliant minds and every perspective is valued. Indeed there have been atrocities in the world past, present and no doubt well into the future. At what point do we navigate away from giving attention-seeking POWERplayers; politicians, media and jihadi terrorists the publicity and focus they crave.

Don't the majority of decent women, men, youth and children deserve to be left alone and be given a fair go to contribute to our sunburnt country?. Is it too ambitious to reach out asking community/society for support, tolerance, collaboration and harmony?
Black lives, white lives and the lives of all people, regardless of color, age, sexual orientation or creed matter.
I appreciate your comments however I must turn to other commitments. Heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for your input and views.

As you asked 3 questions and turn away without hearing answers you won't read this so I'm not writing it to you.

Najla,

The Burqa is a sign of oppression which has no place in a free democratic country.

Official banning of Burqa is a sign of oppression which has no place in a free democratic country.

Why on earth would any normal woman want to
cover her full face and body when out in public?
It's not for religion so for what?

Supposed modesty?

This is the 21st century not the 7th.
And this is Australia not the Middle East.
So why come to a country like Australia if
you want to maintain customs of past centuries?

What nonsense!
