As wave upon wave of Muslim refugees swarm into Europe, Switzerland is taking a stand for it’s culture.
Disturbed by a rise in the amount of Muslim women who have taken to wearing burqas in public, the Swiss Parliament ruled in favor of a measure to ban women from wearing the full-body garment, with violators being subjected to as much as £6,500 in fines. The move, originating in the canton of Ticino, was supported by a whopping two out of three voters, with many motivated to support the referendum on account of the increasing risk of terrorist attacks all over the continent.
The measure, which applies to Muslim Swiss citizens and foreign tourists alike, only prohibits veils that conceal the entirety of the wearer’s body, leaving masks, balaclavas and helmets untouched. The proposal’s author, Giorgio Ghiringhelli, hailed the parliament’s vote in favor of it, lauding it as a stern message to “Islamist fundamentalists” lurking within the small country.

Ban muslims problem solved !

Ban burkas in USA
I applaud Switzerland. Here in America, freedom of religion is threatened. Freedom of religion is threatened in a country that was founded on freedom of religion. Now, we’re being told that we MUST accept all factions of all religions, even if those factions contradict our way of life. We’re told today that Christians should be ‘free’ to practice their religion in their homes, or places of worship, but not in the public square, because we might offend some people. I’m told I should not pray before my meal in a public space, because it may offend someone. I could go on and on. My point is; why is it that my religion seems to offend everybody, but I have no right to be offended by others? Leave your burqas, your terrible oppression of women (treating them as property), your persecution and murder of gays, etc. – leave that all behind you, or don’t come here. We have a vibrant, and welcome, Muslim population in America that has done just that for a very long time. Give it a try – or stay where you are.
Why don’t they wear the beautiful sari’s like the Lindia women. They dress so nice and I always tell them. The fabrics are gorgeous.
That’s really not a bad idea when considering what a great place it would be for tourists to hide..
AMERICA SHOULD TOO!
They ought to shoot them if they defy the law
Islam is a theocracy masquerading as a religion. Americans have been “sincerely ignorant and conscientiously stupid”. American has been disgraced. Our soldiers are still fighting and hoping that we at home are going to make us a proud, prosperous America to come home to.
ALL Of A Sudden….Seven Short Years Have Passed!
Before Obama there was virtually no outlandish presence of Islam in America.
• All of a sudden, Islam is taught in schools. Christianity and the bible are banned in schools.
• All of a sudden we must allow prayer rugs everywhere and allow for Islamic prayer in schools, airports and businesses.
• All of a sudden we must stop serving pork in prisons.
• All of a sudden we are inundated with law suits by Muslims who are offended by American culture.
• All of a sudden we must allow burkas to be worn everywhere even though you have no idea who or what is covered up under them.
• All of a sudden Muslims are suing employers and refusing to do their jobs if they personally deem it conflicts with Sharia Law.
• All of a sudden the Attorney General of the United States vows to prosecute anyone who engages in “anti-Muslim speech”.
• All of a sudden, Jihadists who engage in terrorism and openly admit they acted in the name of Islam and ISIS, are emphatically declared they are NOT Islamic by our leaders and/or their actions are determined NOT to be terrorism, but other nebulous terms like ‘workplace violence.”
• All of a sudden, it becomes Policy that Secular Middle East dictators that were benign or friendly to the West, must be replaced by Islamists and the Muslim Brotherhood.
• All of a sudden our troops are withdrawn from Iraq and the middle east, giving rise to ISIS.
• All of a sudden, America has reduced its nuclear stockpiles to 1950 levels, as Obama’s stated goal of a nuke-free America by the time he leaves office continues uninterrupted.
• All of a sudden, a deal with Iran must be made at any cost, with a pathway to nuclear weapons and HUNDREDS of BILLIONS of dollars handed over to fund their programs.
• All of a sudden America APOLOGIZES to Muslim states and sponsors of terror worldwide for acts of aggression, war and sabotage THEY perpetrate against our soldiers.
• All of a sudden, the American Navy is diminished to 1917 Pre-World War I levels of only 300 ships. The Army is at pre-1940 levels. The Air Force scraps 500 planes and planned to retire the use of the A-10 Thunderbolt close air support fighter. A further draw down of another 40,000 military personnel is in progress.
• All of a sudden half of our aircraft carriers are recalled for maintenance by Obama rendering the Atlantic unguarded, NONE are in the Middle East.
• All of a sudden Obama has to empty Guantanamo Bay of captured Jihadists and let them loose in Jihad-friendly Islamic states. He demands to close the facility.
• All of a sudden America will negotiate with terrorists and trade FIVE Taliban commanders for a deserter and Jihad sympathizer.
• All of a sudden there is no money for American poor, disabled veterans, jobless Americans, hungry Americans, or displaced Americans but there is endless money for Obama’s “Syrian refugee” resettlement programs.
• All of sudden there is an ammunition shortage in the USA.
• All of a sudden, the most important thing for Obama to do after a mass shooting by two Jihadists, is disarm American Citizens.
• All of a sudden, the President of the United States cannot attend the Christian Funerals of a Supreme Court Justice and a former First Lady because of previous (seemingly unimportant) commitments.
All of a sudden, I’m sick to my stomach. I’m not sure the majority of Americans recognize the seriousness of the situation and how much “progress” has been made by Islam these last 7 years, a very brief time compared to a 75 year lifetime!
Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within. It is called “infiltration. For the record; I am not islamophobic – that would mean I fear islam. I do not. I am, however, miso-islamic. Using the prefix miso indicates “that which is loathed or despised.” Islam is SEDITIOUS (insubordination, insurrection, mutiny, treason, agitation, defiance, disobedience , dissent, insurgence, insurgency, revolt, revolution and uprising) against every nation and government on earth. Islam demands that all muslims work to overthrow all nations, governments and non-sharia laws. Obama is a domestic terrorist!
