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

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

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.

​

Being a non-believer it is difficult for me to empathize with or understand people worshiping mythical supernatural beings.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful, just honest.

I also find it impossible to admire fellow human beings following a religion telling them to 'convert or destroy non-believers.'

Islam: "There are two forms of lying to non-believers that are permitted under certain circumstances, taqiyya and kitman. These circumstances are typically those that advance the cause Islam - in some cases by gaining the trust of non-believers in order to draw out their vulnerability and defeat them."

"al-Taqiyya: deception; the Islamic word for concealing or disguising one’s beliefs, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions, and/or strategies."

"Muslim scholars teach that Muslims should generally be truthful to each other, unless the purpose of lying is to "smooth over differences."

Peace.

If such a symbol did not represent the oppression of women, perhaps it would be less unpalatable.

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.

Anyone who believes in "God", and who believes he/she has the word of that deity, obviously believes in something greater than the words and laws of men. If we hear the person saying otherwise, we know he/she is lying to us, and perhaps even to his/her self.

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

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

What is the harm?

Listen Einstein, we have liberals bitching about the ten commandments, crosses on public property and now the liberals change their mind to accommodate some dot head

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.

Excellent thinking!
Let’s call for consistency and demand a bill be passed in Congress to stone all congress women who fail to wear headgear. We don’t want to offend our Muslim Congress-woman.

I'm sure you've seen the billion or so threads about how much they are allegedly enjoying "winning". Could you imagine how despondent these useless fuck stains who support Trump would be if they had to actually admit that he is the failure we all know he is? He just caved on tariffs....you'd think that would be a moment of clarity; right?

Burqa Bans: Which Countries Outlaw Face Coverings?



PARIS — The Canadian province of Quebec is the latest place to make it a crime to wear a face-covering garment in public, a move that critics derided as discriminatory against Muslim women.

Quebec’s law, enacted on Wednesday, is the first of its kind in North America, but similar measures — sometimes referred to as burqa bans — have existed in Europe for years.


*Snip*


The French-speaking province of Quebec has barred people with face coverings from receiving public services or from working in government jobs.
