Give them a full cavity exam.
A lot of it is not security related. If you go into most courtrooms wearing a hat the judge will tell you to take it off FAST.
I'm guessing these are of the "born in America and converted in prison" brand of muslims. Going back to where they came from means the housing projects they're still living in.
What Muslims need to learn is that in this country they follow OUR rules and regulations of get on back to their own sandbox.
Of course it would be allowed. . .if it didn’t cover the face.
Quick question, what is an “Abaya” then?
Thanks.
Based on her expletive laced response I would say she was back where she came from and converted.
The burqa is the body bag, minus the face bag, but with a hood attached in place of separate hijab...and usually worn with the face bag as an accessory.
The abaya is sort of like a caftan.
Abayas are worn in Arabia, while burqas are worn in Central Asia. Kaftan is Turkish, gondora is Morrocan. It’s all roughly the same garment, sometimes a gown on its own, other times a covering to be removed in private. Regional/cultural variations on head and face covering.
So I guess shooting the bitch is out of the question???
If she really wants to be treated like where she came from, why dose she think she can speak in public?
Many thanks.
I know that when men enter a courtroom they must remove their hat. Why should there be a difference for women?

That’s not security it’s a hold over from when all men wore hats and you removed them when you entered a building and when outside removed them when you were in the presence of someone who was substantially your better (Lord, Judge, etc). In the 50’s and earlier when you were going between clients in the same building you put on your hat so you could be seen removing it when you entered the new clients office. Strange but true. While women covered their hair when entering a church men removed their caps. Same idea.
It is partly security and partly custom. Several articles in the local newspaper have covered the issue after a cancer patient was forced to remove her head covering and cried due to the embarrassment. Discussions about the security aspect followed. However, the judge who originally denied the woman rescinded his order after a public outcry. I believe that judge now does not require that head coverings be removed, although the Sheriff would prefer that they were.
Ya it is a respect thing. I was sitting in a courtroom once and a detective came up to the stand to testify in a little case, I forget drugs or weapons violation or something. Anyway the Judge BOOMS out at the detective “ARE YOU CHEWING GUM IN MAH COURTROOM?!!!”. The judge loses it and tells the cop to get rid of the gum. Later the defense attorney asked for suppression of evidence and dismissal. Judge agreed. Case closed.
As for security and hat/ hair coverings, there are some issues such as covert weapons infiltration (and other things) with small knives, razors and other items, but that should be hit by the metal detectors or wands at entry. As for “letter opener” carbon fiber/kevlar style edged weapons or even hair pins modified for gouging..those could be put in hats or hair coverings but those things could easily be put elsewhere on somebody (pants, taped to leg, *ahem* elsewhere) to get them in if the court security isn’t doing full pat-downs or using advanced scanning equipment to catch it at the entry points.
