I would be outraged. Contact the American Center for Law & Justice for advice.

We are no longer living in the 16th or 19th Century. 40 years ago, things were different in Egypt.
To: Mom MD
Call the ACLU. That should be interesting.

“my daughter was wearing her coat for religious reasons.”
What? Explain. What religion? Why did they want it off?

Quit embarrassing your daughter in public.

I never heard of a religion that required wearing a jacket. What religion is this? I learn something new everyday on Free Republic.

I know it sucks but its the law.

I’m really attempting to give a damn about your plight. I really am. It’s just not happening. I have a feeling you’d be real fun on a dinner date.

If your daughters coat was not obscuring her face/jaw line there was no reason to remove it.

Why do you care if women want to wear a hijab? If the women were Mennonites, would you want then to remove their head covering? And why would you lie to the authorities just to make a point? I thought bearing false witness was a sin.

Unfortunately, that is the world we live in. For now. Muslims can wear their hijab, Sikhs can carry their daggers, etc. Now if your daughter were a Nun in full habit, perhaps they would not know what to do. Oh heck, she’s a Christian, make her take it off. Probably. Good luck with your protest, I agree with you 100%.

It’s called the “country.” Hillbillies ask for it by name.

You will get nowhere.
Government employees are not afraid of offending white people. You are nothing, and any suit you bring will be laughed at.
I assume from your name that you are from Maryland. Makes a suit even more ridiculous. Liberal Maryland could care less about offending you.

Well, first what religious reasons is your daughter wearing a coat for? Are these documented reasons with in your religion, can they be verified. otherwise you don’t have a case.

You lost me when you said she was wearing the jacket for religious reasons which we all know is not the case. You were discriminated against because you are of a particular religion, but because you are NOT of a particular religion.
And quite honestly, I think lawyers are a huge reason why we are in this mess. Don't involve more by making a complaint.
I understand your point and I think it's a valid one. She should not have had to remove her coat.
