Attorney in hijab defends call for other women at 9/11 hearing to wear 'appropriate' clothing

The defense attorney who wore a traditional Islamic outfit during the rowdy arraignment of the accused Sept. 11 terrorists is defending her courtroom appeal that other women in the room wear more "appropriate" clothing to the proceedings -- out of respect for her client's Muslim beliefs.

Cheryl Bormann, counsel for defendant Walid bin Attash, attended the arraignment Saturday dressed in a hijab, apparently because her client insisted on it. She further requested that the court order other women to follow that example so that the defendants do not have to avert their eyes "for fear of committing a sin under their faith."

What a bunch of crap........as a matter of fact, people that dress as baskets of dirty laundry offend me. I’m sick of these special 7th century barbarian demands.

There’s a very simple solution. The defendants should gouge out each others eyes so that they don’t have to see such an offensive vision. If they can’t see it they can’t be offended!

Better than that, a knee length skirt, a jacket or cardigan, a blouse, and CLOSED TOE shoes. Gray black and white. Dress the part, chickadee.

Hang her along side her client.

I hear hijabs are pretty durable and can support the weight of a person....luckily she brought her own.

Defendants should be dressed in western attire out of respect for the court.

I think what the defendant is asking is farr. After all, it is his trial and his life is in the balance.

So, it would be appropriate if every infidel just slit their own throats and spare the puar wittle muslim scum from having to share the room with the infidels. It is only fair and respecting to his beliefs.

...but my religion requires hot women to wear only a thong...and be topless. Only the ugly ones must cover up and wear a paper bag on their head.

Therefore Islam must be outlawed because, as their women are always covered, we can’t tell which ones are hot or ugly!

/s

That is about as sane as this....

Out of respect for their beliefs, she should wear a suicide belt.

And, when she’s off alone, use it.

I call for the opposing lawyers and spectators to sex it up. Give em cleavage, push up bras, and dresses that cling to the bootie. And spike heels to make it all wiggle just right.

Bite me haji,,

Really sums up the ludicrousness of Islam in a single moment. Avert your eyes from a woman so as not to commit a “sin,” but kill all the people you want.
