She and her family can return to where ever they came from and she can take gym classes there. Screw them. They chose to come here and live, so they can live by our rules, not theirs. Or they can leave. Does anyone here live in Burke?
To: 300magnum
The 9th grader at Lake Braddock Secondary School in Burke, Va., was "threatened with failing the class if she did not wear shorts," according to a statement released by the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR).If this is true, that's wrong. As long as she participates in the class, why should it matter what she wears?

If they can't follow the rules then get the hell out of our schools.I agree. But if the only issue is that the girl wants to wear long pants instead of shorts, I wouldn't see that as a big deal.

What is the need to force this girl to wear shorts? This girl and her shorts are not the issue. This is merely one wedge issue the muslims will use to incrementally impose their values upon our society, one step at a time. It is a time-proven formula, to chisel away at us. The death of a thousand cuts. The camels nose in the tent. The boiling frog. Give 'em an inch and they'll take a mile. The long journey begins with a step. Whatever metaphor you like! The muslims have a game plan. The founders of CAIR are upfront about converting America to Islam. Do you believe them? Do you want to live under Sharia law? Sooner or later, the muslims will object to something that YOU have no problem with. Will you give it up for them? Where will you will draw a line in the sand, stand and fight?

If we don't make these people integrate into our society, they'll force us to integrate into theirs.

This is why we need to start paying much more attention to who we vote for for former less thought about positions, such as school board members..and city council members.
I think we need to ask candidates for school boards how they would handle that issue...and NOT vote for someone who would acquiesce to CAIR'S demands.

"I think the Muzzies have to be assimilated or they can LEAVE. If they cannot do gym shorts or our laws or our ways, then they won't be very happy here and WE won't either."
If you look at European countries where Muslims have lived for several generations, it appears they become less assimilated as time goes on.
Previous nationalities migrating to the U.S. lived in ethnic neighborhoods at first, but didn't view people with a different religion as "infidels."

Dearborn isn't the only city with a large Muslim population. DC has a large one and so does SoCal.

As I recall, they weren't naked, but simply not wearing the proper Saudi women's attire.Yup..."uncovered" means not wearing a burqa.

I feel sorry for the girl: her parents are making her stand out from the crowd, at an age when it is ABSOLUTELY IMPERITIVE to try to "fit in".
So she's the only one going to be running around in odd uncomfortable gym attire, when all her colleagues (because for sure she won't have any "friends": her parents make her too wierd to have friends) get to wear shorts and conform to the norm.
How horribly sad for this little girl! I think she ought to rebel and wear shorts, just to spite her folks.

You said what I was thinking. The only reason we are in the mess with government education that we are is because we went from self-reliance to public-reliance on educating our children.
We would not have all the situations of public indoctrination from, Islam is a Religion of Peace to Homosexuality is just an alternative lifestyle that you should experiment with, if we did not have public schools.

Okay. Lets just let every kid wear whatever they want.
If the parents don't like school rules..pay for private school!

My grandmother was the same way, but she also added playing cards to that list.

Playing cards -- definitely a no-no, too. Not even Old Maid. No slacks on women. No earrings. No makeup. Life was fun... NOT! Couldn't say "gee" or "gosh" or "darn" -- all minced oaths.

I think you're right. Rather than letting this girl wear long sweats or some other accomodation, let's just go to the extreme and let everyone wear what they want. Nice work.
