Foxy,
If, as Mr Sali stated the burqa is not a religious garment or requirement, then why do some women wear it? The only reasonable explanation is that some muslim women try to impress other muslim women that they are more pious. These women should be mocked on the street for their claims. In fact other muslims should be the ones mocking them and we should have no hesitation in banning the dress on security grounds. If the husbands of the women, that wear the burqa, are making the women wear it, that is all the more reason we should ban it. Posted by Banjo, Monday, 21 August 2017 2:08:31 PM

Hi Foxy,
Damn silly that you were required to remove your beret, particularly as the there is no ban on the burqa! Surely you have something to say about this? Boofhead Brandis won't ban the burqua, but he has already banned the beret. You should be very angry about this. You do not have the same rights as a Muslim woman wearing a tent. Had there been a Muslim sitting next to you, she/he (who knows who is hiding) would have been ignored, but you would still have to remove your beret. Forget PH, Foxy, you should be hopping mad about this sort of discrimination. Posted by ttbn, Monday, 21 August 2017 3:47:02 PM

Dear ttbn,
Actually I was rather pissed off and very embarrassed as well. I was wearing the beret at the time not only because I was cold, being winter, but because I had also lost a lot of my hair due to cancer. I used to covered my head with berets as a result. But I had to obey the rules and my husband told me that I looked fine (I had a short pixie cut - but I was still very self-conscious about it). But that was a long time ago - and I got over it. I've been cancer free for over a decade now and besides - I wasn't going to fight the security guard over a simple beret. Posted by Foxy, Monday, 21 August 2017 7:34:12 PM

Dear Foxy,
This story of a nun not being allowed to wear the habit in class in Nebraska is rather topical I thought. http://www.catholicherald.co.uk/news/2017/01/18/catholic-nun-banned-from-wearing-habit-in-classroom-due-to-nebraska-state-law/ The ban came from pressure by the KKK in 1918. it seems intolerance and banning religious garb often walk hand in hand.

Dear Steele,
Don't get me started on nuns. I watched the film, "Philomena" with Judy Dench on Saturday evening. A very moving film - but the cruelty of those "Sisters of Mercy" - who were anything but merciful - reminded me of my own growing up. The Church has a lot to answer. Anyway, Thanks for the link.

Pauline Hanson's ONLY obligation is towards the people who put her in the senate.
I'm one of them, and I support her move, as do plenty of other Aussies unless of course you support REAL EQUALITY and are ok with legalising balaclava's.
I couldn't give two hoots whether shes actually Muslim or not.
She owes absolutely NOTHING to those people that disagree with her, to you or anyone else, people who would not be satisfied with anything less than burning her alive at the stake.
They are the real intolerant bigots in my opinion, and Aussies put Pauline where she is right now to do EXACTLY that which she has done.
Most politicians south of the QLD border are going to be a cuckold apologists for Muslims (and minorities), if they don't they wont get elected in your overrun multicultural progressive electorates.
The cancers well advanced you morons.
