Maybe we should consider old blokes in priestly attire a security risk to young children, there's certainly enough evidence of that.
Paul1405,
These cloaks, hoods etc hide physical aspects which are definitely security-risk. Even more dangerous are those unveiled outfits such as Mortar Boards that hide indoctrinated stupidity & some of the attire worn by Greens also hide a great degree of stupidity but fortunately, the wearers expose those traits by opening their mouths !

As well as the apparently stalled Hanson campaign against Muslim attire (including the stunt of wearing a burqa into Parliament that she copied directly from the USA), when will she resurrect the terrifying Halal labelling matter to save us all?

As for vitamin D deficiencies, people in cold climates can have the same "problem". All citizens in the UK have low levels for at least 30% of the year.

I wear hoodies a lot, but I've never robbed the servo.

Funnily enough I found a sawn-off shotgun in the under-bunk area of a caravan rented at a caravan park once, and my stupid mate went off holding up servos with another bloke.
That was about 30 years ago though, and the cops got them.
- Been years since I even thought about it honestly.

Sometimes I've been stubborn and challenged the servo staff over their hoodie-nazi-attitude, especially when the policy first came in.
Mostly I just go along with it now to keep the peace, in the daytime it annoys me being told to take it off and I get tempted to make an issue of it, but at night-time I recognise it might make them uneasy, so pull the hoodie down voluntarily.
- It can restrict your peripheral vision when driving anyway.

But I don't like them telling me how I should and shouldn't dress.
"Do you ask Muslims to take their Burka's off?" I've asked once or twice, if they've been rude about it.

I think one time I'd already put fuel in, they told me to take it off when I went to enter and pay, so I was waving the $40 around at the door saying you come and get it then, if I'm not allowed in.

- "I'll just leave it for you out here, if I'm not allowed in."

Once or twice if I recall they've come over the speaker and said "We're not turning the pump on till you take your hoodie off."

It's been years since any of that happened though, I must just take it off without thinking now, or else they don't make an issue of it.

Hi AC,

I once went to a seedy club in Kings Cross, by mistake of course I thought it was the YMCA. There was this woman on the stage, I think she was Muslim, because all the fellas in the audience were yelling; "TAKE IT OFF!", me thinks they must have been Hanson supporters.

Since moving to Brisbane, I have been very concerned about the attire worn by the Eskimo population, big fur coats, fur boots etc, even the children are decked out that way. It worries me no end to think these dangerous people are going into servos. Just the other day I was in a petrol station, went in to pay, and inside was six woman in burka's, a clown, a couple of gang members in hoodies and a family of Eskimo, naturally I had removed every stitch of clothing myself before entering, to show I was normal and mean no harm. Unfortunately Ramesh behind the counter was so overwhelmed by the sight of me, that his turban fell off his head, leaving him stark naked as well.

On this line of moslem dress there was an item on the BBC the other
night about Cairo that in many entertainment places restaurants etc

They showed a map of the city and there were dozens of places that
have the Hijab ban.
Things are a-changing !

Hi Paul1405,
I go to the Vicky Point YMCA once a week.
My girlfriends 7yo does the gymnastics.
Of all the mums and girls there, I've not seen any wearing hijabs or burkas.
- Maybe gymnastics is haram for Muslims...
