Child Abuse, Bigotry Rampant in Britain’s Muslim Schools

[Insula Dei]

The general crappiness of islamic schools in Western Europe is another good reason to oppose measures that seem to deliberately push Muslim pupils towards them. That's part of why a ban on headscarfs in schools/public places is a bad idea.

I still see old women wearing headscarfs over here, though they tend to be in plastic these days.

While this isn't the headscarf thread, I have to say that banning it always seemed like an extremely childish move by a majority that wanted to bully a specific minority. I can't think of any other credible reason for defending a ban.
