A hairdresser went on trial in Norway on Thursday for refusing a Muslim client wearing a hijab, in the first case in the country to go to court over the Islamic head covering.
Merete Hodne risks up to six months in prison for religious discrimination for turning Malika Bayan away from her hair salon in Bryne, a small town in southwestern Norway, in October last year. [ ]
The 47-year-old hairdresser told the court she saw the hijab as a political symbol representing an ideology that frightens her, rather than as a religious symbol.
I see it as a totalitarian symbol. When I see a hijab, I dont think of religion, but of totalitarian ideologies and regimes, she told the judges, cited by daily VG.

My keffiya (a souvenir from a friend from a 90’s trip to the holy land) is a dust cloth on my dresser.
She’s screwed. Norway is run by twits
She should demand a citation in the Koran requiring women to be more covered, than just an invocation to “dress modestly”.
Since there is no such requirement in their religion, what the woman did is not religious, but a cultural affirmation of secular control and domination. As such, it is not modest, but oppressive.
That’s good. Or when hijab chick comes into her salon have the walls plastered with passages from the New Testament and proclamations that Jesus is Lord. Who knows. Customer might come out as a convert.
The Muslim dress code signals your devotion and adherance to sharia law. As such, you must compel the dhimni to convert, or kill them.
I would refuse to cut the monsters hair
And I am pretty sure you would be correct.
This happend in a small town, and the hairdresser Hodne is a locally famous islam critic and patriot.
THe muslim charging racism (sigh) is not even a foreigner, but a Norwegian girl that converted.
Making a bunch of female hairdressers and their customers immediate targets for vandalism, jihad rape and assassination, Einstein.
AW: "Making a bunch of female hairdressers and their customers immediate targets for vandalism, jihad rape and assassination, Einstein."
I'll leave Einstein to the self-proclaimed geniuses and instead quote a Founding Father, Benjamin Franklin:
"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Oh, please. He wasn’t talking about barbarian, bloodthirsty jihadists turned loose on civilians.
“Please” yourself with your evident ignorance of history - specifically the brutality used by the English against the rebelling Founding Fathers and their families.
FReepers should read up on the barbarism the British used by âturning looseâ âbloodthirstyâ Iroquois war parties âon civiliansâ in non-loyalist colonial population areas - before minimizing the courage and sacrifices of the Founding Fathers and their families.

Double please.
More specifically, there is a critical difference between knowing history and seeking to make moral equivalence between the acts of today’s jihadists with the acts of other cultures centuries ago — cultures that have since reformed in no small part because of past brutalities.
And contrary to your posts, at the present the former were surely much more than the later. But if we fail to make those sacrifices now both the brutality and the sacrifices required will rise to the levels of America's founding.
Very possibly.
Point taken, though these days few would volunteer for that over such a silly issue.
May I take it you’re currently busy fighting to your death the NSA, the EPA, the IRS, Obama, and the Clintons, to put your money where your mouth is?
Otherwise, reflect that Franklin quote upon yourself. Easy to be a keyboard warrior!
