Rodriguez-Colon, the Muslim, doesn't want to follow the rules as posted?

[Mr. K]

*sigh* what’s the point of saying anything

stupid lady wears usafe clothing to a place of HER CHOOSING then complains they are ‘discriminating’

[madison10]

They should have let her leave it on. Maybe it would have...oh, never mind. She could have won the Darwin award anyway.

“Durka Durka...mohammed jihad”

The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - a Christian nation is discriminating against her - that’s why they want it changed - it’s time we stand for what we are and what made us great - and it has noting to do with ISLAM!!!

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

They obviously can’t and won’t live in a civilized society.

With a face like that.....I would wear a bag over my head. She was beaten with the ugly stick.

[caveat emptor]

After a barrage of phone calls from activist groups and others, the rink management apologized and said Shah could skate with her headscarf.

More like, “if you don’t let me do exactly as I want, I will sue and you we will release the power of CAIR on your business.” There will be more and more of these discrimination tactics so that businesses are intimidated, allowing muslims to do things that American’s can’t do, just like TSA screening.

SAFETY ISSUE trumps your religion preference.

No scarves or loose clothing.

Will she be discriminated against when she causes another skater to fall and be injured.

STUPID . . . LEAVE OUR COUNTRY IF YOU DON’T LIKE OUR RULES.

Marisol Rodriguez-Colon, 40, said she was "mortified"...

I take offense to mortified rag wearers.

Any attorneys want to take my case?

I'm a minority....white, male, European descendant, Constitutionally driven.

[Michael.SF.]

Reading further:

The manager, Colon said, gave the women two choices: take off the headscarves, or wear a helmet over them.

End of story, she chose not to wear a helmet!

[unixfox]

A private business exercising it's right to refuse service.

Sounds ok to me.

[battletank]

“STUPID . . . LEAVE OUR COUNTRY IF YOU DON’T LIKE OUR RULES.”

NOPE! As usual, the rules are changed to accommodate murdering muslims of islam!

[Dudoight]

The rink caved...they let her skate in her religious head scarf.....

sickening

[realcleanguy]

Safety issue. Take off the scarf and put on a helmet.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Always ask yourself in this kind of situation, "What would Sharia Law do?"

It is not a rhetorical question.

[Soothesayer]

As much as I despise Islam this does seem odd. How does a headscarf pose a safety hazard?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Marisol Rodriguez-Colon! Now there’s a good muzzie name! LOL!!!

[umgud]

CAIR is an organization that exists to defend, promote and protect the percieved rights of its members. Too bad us white Euro-Americans didn’t have such an organiztion.
