While I can understand being angered about not being able to dress kids in head scarves (imagine Jews not being allowed to wear yamukkahs)

Yamukkahs were banned in school under the same legislation.

They could have been schooled through a correspondence course.

I don't accept the French government mandating the course materials. I believe that neither they nor Germany allow anybody to break their monopoly on education. If you still have to use THEIR program, that is insufficient.

This is a case of where I'd have to take my chances with the French. This creep shouldn't have custody of or be trusted to 'teach' anything. He's seriously, dangerously insane.

I would hate for all of us to have to live with laws that assume we are all like this monster. He could have been put away on false imprisonment charges alone, without bringing the home-schooling into it.

At least there is SOME morality in the Koran, however the book may be misused by the worst of Islamoloons.

Not just compulsory socialism out of the frogs either. They tell the same Islamic kids who are apparently required to be brainwashed into frog secularism that their girls cannot wear head coverings of a religious nature. Catholic kids cannot wear crucifixes. Other Christian kids cannot wear crosses. Jewish kids cannot wear yarmulkes. Etc., etc., etc. ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

At least the Islamic population in France cares enough about Allah to suffer for their faith at the hands of their enemies and ours. I won't speak for other faiths, but I would like to hear that genuinely Catholic parents were suffering for your Faith and mine in order to heroically raise their children as Catholics.

Meanwhile, I want to share between Catholics and Muslims in France the franchises for Freedom Fries, Freedom Vanilla Ice Cream and similar products. Let them be trademarked here and set the WTO on France if they try to interfere. Next up, we can create a chain of elementary, secondary and colege level schools AS BUSINESSES (owned by Americans and operating in France) and involve the WTO in punishing any frog gummint interference as illegal restraint of international "trade."

WTO wants to cram abortion down Ireland's throat this way. Maybe we can help them to see the error of their ways.

This is perhaps the first indication that there IS a Government in France since, oh, November 1st or so.
