Although Pat Condell, who made the video above, is by his own proud admission an 'angry Atheist', and rarely has charitable things to say for any religion, he also is an articulate speaker against things pertaining to Islamofascism and I found his video above to be quite worthwhile...I hope that you will too :-)

Well it IS like wearing a bag over your head. Just like praying with your face in the dirt and ass in the air is like asking to be...um...never mind.

But it is like having a bag over your head. It’s just a cloth version of the Unknown Comic...http://i.usatoday.net/life/_photos/2008/07/28/bagx.jpg

Considering all the Orwellian police state crap I see coming out of the British police, I’m beginning to think we should ban them from entering the United States on the grounds that they are a threat to American citizens.

Wearing a burkha is not like wearing a paper bag on your head. That would be environmentally incorrect.

It's like wearing a reusable cloth bag over your head.

In fact, it is wearing a cloth bag over your head.

How far we have fallen.

It’s amazing, isn’t it, how everything is degrading in society today - even our perception of freedom?

Fifty years ago, in the “backwards” 50’s and 60’s, people would be furious at being told what to say. Now it is accepted.

I've seen a number of his videos.While he has no love for religion in general he has specifically said that he has far more respect for the typical Christian or Jew than he does for the Religion Of Pieces and many of its followers.

He’s exactly correct - I have one that I got as a souvenir from the troops for sending stuff to Afghanistan.

I remember a time when stories like this only came out of places like East Germany and the USSR.
