Two women place a black wreath at the entrance of the French embassy in Ankara, Turkey, on Saturday Jan. 17, 2004, to protest against the French government's decision to ban head scarves and other conspicuous religious symbols in public schools. The words on the wreath read: " Ankara non-governmental organizations" (AP Photo/Burhan Ozbilici)

At last the French have found an opponent they can get tough with: school children.

Muslims Protest Head-Scarf Ban in France
I guess migrating to another land, with a heartfelt feeling of peace and contentment, where they are allowed is out of the question.

If I revolt against this transgression I will be called an extremist. Well, a size 9 shoe makes for a good fit on a size 9 ped.

This ban will be overturned once sharia is introduced in a couple of years. I predict France will surrender, for the final time, to Muslims by 2020.

Of course this is France where it's easier to go after school children rather than stop the attacks of women of any religion who are out after dark without a veil.

Shouting "The veil is my choice," hundreds of people marched in Paris on Saturday as part of global protests against the French government's plan to ban Muslim headscarves in schools. The fuse has been lit.

This isn't just a limited attack on any one religion, but an assault on the concept of religion itself. It seems that the French government won't be satisfied until they're the ones being worshipped.

But, many Islamic leaders say the law will stigmatize France's estimated 5 million Muslims, who make up 8 percent of the population. This is a sad state of affairs -- just wait till the percentage is 10%, if the French think they've got problems now.

If head scarves were outlawed, only outlaws would have head scarves.

Headscarves are the trojan horse. The Pandora's box of other rights that will be demanded is bursting to be opened beneath the hijab, 'protestors' already citing France's 'liberty' and freedom for all. And I doubt they will go silently into the night if they are turned down for their 'requests'.

How do you say, "don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out", in French?

I see this was posted earlier today. Have the French surrendered yet?
