have a look at the perpetrators of Muslim terrorist attacks in the West. None of them are poor or uneducated.

We're not talking about Jihadis, those who blow up people - criminals come in all shapes and colours. We're talking about people who hold pernicious beliefs that affect daily interactions with people.

Now now, Augie, Gordon is free to hold pernicious beliefs about all the tinted races.

He pashed a Boong on the bus to Dubbo, you see.

I nearly pashed a gin once.

That's the spirit, Matty, but if I was you, I'd stick to the methamphetamines.

Gin gives you brewers droop.

Zero evidence that the poor and uneducated have a monopoly on pernicious beliefs. Try again.

The most cringe worthy thing is to know it is still happening, even here in OZ.

Yes, but in Australia they are free to choose to wear it. There is no law against or for it.

But since it isn't a right, we can easily make a nice little law and ban that sh1t for 'safety' reasons.

Australia is good at bringing in those type of laws, should be fairly straight forward.

We have lots of stupid laws in place for 'safety reasons', can't see why we can't add one more, can you?

It is who we are as a people, it is what we want, we will willingly sacrifice freedom for safety. As a card carrying coward I thought you would be front and centre on this matter.

Absolutely, this is Australia it is what we do.

We start with the terrorists first and then work our way down to mascots, if that is what you want.

You have no idea how stupid you are, do you?

You want to ban burkas for 'safety' reasons.

i.e. you "think" (and I'm being very generous when I use that word) that a terrorist will use a burka to disguise themselves.

So, using your "logic" (and again, I'm being extremely generous when using that term), a terrorist could quite possibly disguise themselves as a sporting mascot (thousands of people at sporting events, you know).

Or, they could use a burns mask to disguise themselves, or a Halloween mask, etc.

If, as you say, burkas need to be banned because of 'safety', you would have to ban all face coverings.

You really didn't think that one through too well, did you?

And, while we're on the subject of safety, why aren't you calling for a ban on backpacks?

Backpacks are used by terrorists to conceal their explosives.

Why aren't you demanding that legislation be introduced to forbid backpacks in all public areas?

Is it because you're an extremely naive, ignorant, under-educated buffoon, or is it because you're just a regular garden variety Islamophobe, fuelled by irrational fear & hatred, who isn't concerned about safety at all but instead just wants the burka banned because you quite simply don't like the look of it?

I'm genuinely curious.
