"A district spokesman told the site officials consulted with an attorney about the World Hijab Day event, and were advised that 'there would be more of a legal issue if the school said no to the event' than to hold lessons on the Muslim scarf." Really? What kind of a legal issue? Would the school be brought up on charges of "Islamophobia"? Is that trumped-up propaganda term a crime now?
School board president Van Henri White said of the Hijab Day organizer, student Eman Muthana: "She's not trying to make anybody else anything other than who they are, but she wants people to accept who she is." How wonderful. How incandescently multicultural, with a soupçon of victimhood thrown in: young Eman just wants acceptance, you greasy Islamophobes. Can't you just accept her?
I'll lead the way. Eman Muthana, I accept you. If you want to wear the hijab, please don't think that I have the slightest objection; I don't. What I do wonder is when Rochester's World School of Inquiry will be holding World Uncovered Hair Day, in honor of Aqsa Parvez, whose Muslim father choked her to death with her hijab after she refused to wear it. When will Rochester's World School of Inquiry be celebrating the memory of Aqsa and Amina Muse Ali, a Christian woman in Somalia whom Muslims murdered because she wasn't wearing a hijab? And of the 40 women who were murdered in Iraq in 2007 for not wearing the hijab; and of Alya Al-Safar, whose Muslim cousin threatened to kill her and harm her family because she stopped wearing the hijab in Britain; and of Amira Osman Hamid, who faces whipping in Sudan for refusing to wear the hijab; and of the Egyptian girl, also named Amira, who committed suicide after being brutalized for her family for refusing to wear the hijab; and of the Muslim and non-Muslim teachers at the Islamic College of South Australia who were told that they had to wear the hijab or be fired; and of the women in Chechnya whom police shot with paintballs because they weren't wearing hijab; and of the women also in Chechnya who were threatened by men with automatic rifles for not wearing hijab; and of the elementary school teachers in Tunisia who were threatened with death for not wearing hijab; and of the Syrian schoolgirls who were forbidden to go to school unless they wore hijab; and of the women in Gaza whom Hamas has forced to wear hijab; and of the women in Iran who protested against the regime by daring to take off their legally-required hijab; and of the women in London whom Muslim thugs threatened to murder if they didn't wear hijab; and of the anonymous young Muslim woman who doffed her hijab outside her home and started living a double life in fear of her parents, and all the other women and girls who have been killed or threatened, or who live in fear for daring not to wear the hijab?
When is their day? When will anyone stand in solidarity with them? Those who taunt or brutalize hijab-wearing women are louts and creeps, and should be prosecuted if they commit any acts of violence. At the same time, the women who don't wear hijab in Muslim countries are far m"A district spokesman told the site officials consulted with an attorney about the World Hijab Day event, and were advised that 'there would be more of a legal issue if the school said no to the event' than to hold lessons on the Muslim scarf."

If parents had any balls, and some common sense, they’d put a stop to this by electing patriotic school board members.
The camels nose is truly under the tent.
While the girls are wearing hijabs, they should be taught all the different ways that women are treated as second class citizens in the islamic culture.
NO TO ALL TOWEL HEAD ISLAMIC MUSLIM THUGS AND RAPISTS IN HALLOWEEN GOWNS
I am currently going for my MBA in PA and so am on the school’s email list......this was one of the recent “discussions”:
Fallacy of Violence in Islam, Lunch provided
What fallacy? Does “Allah Akbar” mean I am doing this in the name of Christ? There is only one meaning and still they try to deflect. Unfortunately, this works on the young and stupid who are plentiful in 2016.
Nice!
Why don’t they discuss the incredible Jew hatred that is found in Islam?
You might want to rethink that:

You and some of your friends should quickly make stick signs directing everyone to google the page in my post # 68 and place these signs in the ground in front of the women's and men's dorms!!
Schenectady School Suspends Seventh-Grader for Wearing Rosary to School
June 5, 2010
A New York mother is suing the Schenectady City School District because officials at Oneida Middle School repeatedly suspended her seventh grade son in May for wearing a plastic rosary outside of his shirt in memory of his dead brother and uncle. Oneida’s principal considered the religious symbol gang-related and a violation of the school’s dress code
(...)
The student’s mother, Chantell Hosier, insists that her son is not involved in gangs, and that the rosary belonged to her other son who died five years ago. The student’s uncle, who taught the student about the rosary, recently died of brain cancer.
In fact, students could easily make signs as described above and place them in front of dorms at Univsities all over the country / if there was only some way to get the word out :(
where does the average person get a hijab or burqua to try on???...And who on Earth would but it just to try it????
I would MAKE the school board put in writing exactly what a hijab is.
When they ‘describe’ it as covering every inch of skin save the hands, and no identifiable facial features, I would encourage ALL the parents to cover their children in sheets, with a hood and eye holes cut out.
Maybe even add a ‘Merlin’ hat for effect....
Think Blazing Saddles when Bart and ‘the Kid’ infiltrated Hedleys terrorist recruitment.
When is yarmulke day for the boys?
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh...that sounds like a KKK outfit...sheets and eyeholes....sigh
Oh...I hadn’t noticed.......(do you hear the sarcasm dripping?)
Since the women are allowed to get drivers licenses, work, etc etc completely covered and if the ‘men’ want to hide they don’t have to hide behind their mother’s/wives skirts, they can just wear their ‘Sunday go to meeting clothes’.
Actually if a male is wearing a burka and planning on or doing ‘things’, what difference is he from the ‘average’ run of the mill KKKer.
I admire the former Marine that was in Motor vehicle at the time a Muslim ‘Woman’ got her DL photo taken and and refused to remove his USMC cap.
If Byrd were alive he might just go on down to MV with his ‘youthful indiscretion’ togs on - complete with hood - to get his DL.....
They need to be fired , NOW !
we should ban the head-garbagebag (hijab)
