Denmark will ban burkas in schools and universities under plans to tackle 'parallel societies'

Denmark will ban burkas in schools and universities as part of a plan to tackle what it calls 'parallel societies'.

The garment worn by some Muslim women is already banned in public places in the Scandinavian country, but the move would now expand the order into classrooms across Denmark.

In Denmark, the term 'parallel societies' refers to residential areas where more than half of inhabitants are from an immigrant background.

The ban on full-face coverings was introduced in Denmark in 2018, with those found to break the rule forced to pay a £1,300 fine.

Despite Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen's move to extend the 'burka ban' to schools and universities, critics have argued that the use of the face coverings are not widespread in classrooms.

The government's latest move was revealed by centre-Right newspaper Berlingske, citing a statement from the Danish immigration ministry.

'The government will present a number of legislative proposals that were not adopted before the election,' the statement said.

Too little, too late.

Can’t hide your dames among the Danes.

I support this but this is FAR too little and FAR too late. They needed to adopt laws like this back in the 1980s. What they need now is no more muslims or third worlders and mass deportations of the ones that are there.

Worse today.

And yes, the projections are all bad: https://muslimnews.co.uk/assets/HIGH-IMMIGRATION.jpg

Go to many places in Europe, and you see the Muslim women pushing a stroller and with 4 other children in tow.

While the white women have blue or green short hair cuts, tattoos, a nose ring, and some idiot degree in the social sciences, pursing a nonsense career but with no kids.

Against the WWII Nazi invasion, Denmark held them off for two hours...

Can’t really fault them for not doing more. Mainland Denmark is flat - perfect country for Germany’s armored divisions. And Denmark had nothing to counter the Luftwaffe.

There were also no mountain ranges where Danish units could fall back, and continue to resist.

Seriously, Hans Andersen, you need to remove that population completely.

Back to warmer climes.

Have you seen Muslim woman? I, for one, think that hiding their looks is a public service...

I've seen both the attractive and the ugly ones. One thing I'll give the pretty Muslim women -- IMHO they do a good job of not presenting fake beauty with tons of makeup. I know pretty Christian women the same.

Pathetic

The problem is that they’re there, not that they aren’t “assimilating”.

The Islamists will just have more kids while the Danish morons are busy aborting themselves out of existence.

Then the Muslims will simply ban crosses and any evidence of Christianity because they will win elections with the inevitable crossover (er, “traitor”) vote. They don’t need an absolute majority, just enough turncoats to side with them.

The problem doesn’t end until you make their numbers small enough to be insignificant.

There is an interesting Danish film, ‘April 9th’ free to watch on Amazon Prime. Shot using authentic uniforms weapons and locations where the actual battles, such as they were, took place.

That said, despite their brief military resistance, the Danes managed to save virtually all Danish Jews and they were the only occupied nation that insisted on verifying the well-being of the relatively small number of Danish Jews who the Nazis did get manage to send to the ‘camps’.

Denmark also rescued most of the Danish Jews, and got them into Sweden before the Nazis could capture them.

What if they banned beards and required every household to own a pet pig?

[bk1000]

nations should ban the adherents to the ideas of mohammed. All of them.
They already have countries that practice that garbage. Let them keep it there.
It is not a religion, it is a cult, and not worthy of first amendment protections. Get them ALL out of here and back to places they will be happy.
