Democrats Change 181 Year-Old Rule To Allow Ilhan Omar To Wear Hijab In The House

[rightwinger]

We haven't had a female Muslim elected in 181 years

So, that's all she has to offer in your mind? No surprise there.

It is asshole Republicans whining about a head scarf

This is an expression of religion! I guess it’s OK when it comes to iSLAM. We’re screwed as a nation. Fucking ABNORMALS and worthless, spineless Repukes are taking us down the path of destruction!....Wherr are the SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE scumbags when they should be up in arms....but dont let a 66 year old cross stand on public property to memorialize our fallen war heros!

For 181 years, the U.S. House of Representatives has imposed a ban on its members wearing head coverings. With Ilhan Omar, one of the first Muslim women to be elected to Congress, set to take her oath of office in January, that rule—which would have prohibited her wearing her customary headscarves or the hijab—is slated to change.

The change was proposed jointly by Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, Incoming Rules Chairman Jim McGovern and member-elect Ilhan Omar as part of a larger overhaul package.

When Omar is sworn in next year, she will become the first federal legislator to wear a religious headscarf. Her arrival will mark a number of other “firsts” as well. The Minnesota Democrat will be the first Somali-American in Congress and the first woman of color to represent her state in Washington. She’ll be joined by fellow Midwestern Democrat, Michigan’s Rashida Tlaib, as the first two Muslim women in Congress.

Hats of any kind have been banned from the House floor since 1837.

Which of the American citizens involved do you want to "move back to your shit hole countries"?

Do you think hats were banned because foreigners were wearing them in sessions of Congress?

They can move out of the US We keep changing traditions so we don’t insult foreigners in our country. That’s the problem, no pledge of elegance, no merry Christmas, no prayer in school. It’s bullshit. The US shouldn’t have to change for foreigners. If they don’t like it leave.

Maybe you missed it in my last post. The listed Representatives proposing the change are all US citizens, not foreigners. Are you conflating 'different from you' or 'different from what you are used to' with foreigners?

Now Jews can wear yarmulke’s. What, do you hate Jews?

No one hates the Jews because the Jews love the nation and put the nation before their religion.

The same can't be said of this selfish woman. The whole representative body needs to change the rules for her.

The Jews put the nation before their religion"? First, I think there are plenty of Jews who would disagree with that. Second, I know that I have seen and heard many Christians say that they put religion before country. I'm not sure if I've seen those of other religions say the same, but I am pretty confident people of all sorts of different religious beliefs would put their religion before the country.

Stop being melodramatic.

That isn't the point here.

This is about her religion, the state, and sovereignty.

Is she going to be respectful of the US government, or force the US government to be respectful of Allah? Which is in charge, which has sovereignty?

That is the power play she is showing to her base. If you don't get that you are obtuse.

Do you think that a person cannot respect the government at the same time the government is respectful of that person's beliefs?

Does changing the rules because an individual brings some sort of complaint always involve someone else ending up in charge, or a loss of sovereignty of the US?

Nothing to do with the head scarf. It’s changing rules to accommodate people of other cultures. No other country does it except us.

We're watching the nation change into something totally different right before our eyes.

Is it better? Is it going to be better?

Every day I'm out in public I see stupid ass people doing more and more stupid ass stuff.
People threatening to kill you because you were doing 40 in a 40mph zone and "didn't get out of their way fast enough" cause speed limits don't apply to them.
People dumping garbage out their windows.
People risking their and others lives because texting about last nights date is more important than life itself, road rage is the new norm..... etc etc etc

Hateful, angry people.

They are not respecting women who wear hijabs

Oh Shut Uuuuuup already
It's not the Hijab you fool, it's Islam and Sharia Law that bothers em.
And it should. Islam and socialism are two things that are not compatible with the US Constitution. Now, if you're happy converting the USA into Somalia, then I can see the basis of your delight.

Good, bad or indifferent......
This nation was built on the foundation of a homogeneous people.

And as sure as the Sun rises, it will crumble on a politically correct doctrine of Diversity.
It's partly why Rome fell.

CHINA knows this and is not allowing "Diversity" in their nation of 1.2 BILLION....in fact, if you've been following the news, their "eliminating" millions of Muslims right now.
Again, good bad or indifferent....I'm just stating facts.

Well... to be fair.....

In Islam, it is more of an expression of male dominance of women. Honestly, if you don't wear one in most Islamic based countries, they stone you to death.

If you really want have religious expression, we better put in place a law to stone women who refuse to wear it.
