FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

[1rudeboy]

Don't issue passes to people with veils. Problem solved.

[ClearBlueSky]

The veil REMOVES their identity.
Identity cannot be checked- congratulations- you don't officially exist in Infidel Land.
Troglydyte moron.
Walk- or get a camel.

[glorgau]

The veil is my choice and my religious duty.

With choices come consequences.

She said: "The driver asked to see my pass, but it has my photo on and he couldn't see my face. "I told him I would not remove my veil and he said I couldn't get on."

Sounds like the driver was doing his job. I wonder if her owner beat her for speaking to another male.

[CT-Freeper]

So...did she remove her veil to get her picture taken for the ID?? If so, why can't she remove it for verification when getting on the bus?

[tioga]

We use photo ids in this country, if you don't like it go home.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Walk a mile for a Camel.

[Atlas Sneezed]

Those who choose to exercise their freedom to cover their faces should plan on spending cash for busrides.

[Larry Lucido]

Bus drivers don't make passes at girls who wear glasses veils.

[Alouette]

Muslim women who don't want to remove their veils to use public transportation can get barcodes tattooed on their wrists.

The Amish don't expect us to buy the hay for their horses.

[End Times Sentinel]

When I used to take the train and subway, I used to try to avoid cars that had an obvious muslim riding them.  Nothing ever happened, of course, but there's a lot of ways to die and pretty low on my list is to have some camel molester raising their hands and screaming "allahu akbar" and initiating their sacred trip to hell being the last thing I see on earth.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

That's a good question.

Does her pass have a picture of a woman in a veil on it?

And if she didn't complain, how did this event find its way into the news?

Smells like a setup.

[Cruising Speed]

A veil is a mask and civilized people don't travel around masked, ergo, no one gets on the bus while masked.

[The Worthless Miracle]

"The veil is my choice and my religious duty"

I guess that's not the most harmful of your "religious duties".

[beltfed308]

The veil is my choice

Then live with it!

[stanz]

News like this just makes me happy.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

Good. Now expel them from the country.
