Three policewomen spend full day dressed in Muslim burkhas.  more pandering?

 

1. Too bad they didn’t get beaten for not being with a male relative while in public.

2. I’ll bet if they spent a day in blackface, there’d have been riots....

3. I can not put into words how disgusting this - Pandering just isn’t slimy, pathetic and insightful enough to cover the absolute stupidity, vapidness and insanity of such a stupid move. [Ok I was a big redundant there]

   I’d quit before I’d ever participate in a ‘burkha’ wearing to ‘understand’ the utter worthless of the cult of 3rd Century stupidity. I understand it perfectly without debasing myself. What I can’t understand how anyone with two brain cells rubbing together submit themselves to it - but that failure of Darwin’s theory seems to raise it’s vacant, vapid and mostly empty head in every single city, state, country, and religion in the World.

   Why ever should we pander to the lowest common denominator - it just lowers the standards for us all.

   I hate Liberals.

5. I’m just glad I don’t pay taxes to these scoundrels any more.

   Some more pandering to these people.

   As several people pointed out on a police blog I read occasionally. UK policewomen already have a head covering.....it’s called a hat.

   Nuts to your orders.

   > But she said there were no plans to extend the scheme for officers to dress
   > up as members of other minority communities.

   Blatant pandering.

   > The police spokesman said the officers who dressed up believed they were

   > stared at in the street.

   Gee, you stand out like a sore thumb in a society you immigrated to.  OF COURSE you’re going to be viewed with a suspicious eye.  Have we forgotten basic human nature here?  How about:  If you’re immigrating, you adopt the culture of the country you’re moving to?  (But of course, that isn’t their long term plan, is it?)

   This is the sentence that really made me angry:

   > In return, the Muslim women were shown around South Yorkshire Police’s
   > custody suite and CCTV office and learned about the day-to-day duties
   > of a police officer.

   Information they neither should have been privy to, nor places they should have had access too.  Does nobody comprehend the need for basic OPSEC these days?!?

   Sorry Tiger.  Political Correctness Trumps human nature.
   

   If you’re immigrating, you adopt the culture of the country you’re moving to.
   

   Well, not exactly. PC Trumps that too.
