Muslim woman fights Boulder jail to keep hijab for mug shot
Boulder Daily Camera ^ | 3 December 2010 | Erica Meltzer

Posted on 12/04/2010 7:38:53 AM PST by bjorn14

A University of Colorado student who started wearing hijab after converting to Islam is fighting the Boulder County Jail's insistence that she remove her headscarf for a booking photo, saying that to do so would violate her religious beliefs.

Maria Hardman, 19, of Boulder, reported to the jail Wednesday to do the paperwork for a two-day work crew sentence that was supposed to be served this weekend. But when a jail detention officer told her to remove her headscarf for her mug shot, she balked.

"It's stated in the Koran in two or three places that believing women should wear the veil, except in the company of close family members," she said.

Hardman said she spent three hours at the jail while her lawyer tried to convince officials to let her take the picture with her scarf. She eventually was allowed to leave the jail without taking a picture at all. She said she was told she would be found in contempt of court for being out of compliance with her sentence.

Vlad the Impaler. It is reported that when Turks refused to remove their turbans in front of him, he sent them back with the turbans nailed in place. Now, I won’t say use nails today, ‘cos we ain’t in the Middle Ages, but there is Super Glue ;)...

Exactly! This also goes for silly twenty something women who get involved with “gansta” types due to it being popularized as “OK” in the media. They wind up dead or missing and their families wonder why. . .

“I’ve seen generic american women marry moslem immigrants and stick it out to the bitter end - they had no where to go after the third child. Too bad there’s no one to tell them it’s not a good idea.”

I know what you are talking about. Many American women have several children (not always by the same daddy too) so they marry these rag heads and become Muzzies because, and I say this quite frankly, these are the only men who will have them and their clan. These men are getting citizenship and these women are getting a husband (and meal ticket) that would would not otherwise be getting.

As for the hijab this woman is wearing. You all will hate me for saying this but as long as it does not cover her face it is okay to wear it in a mugshot or other forms of ID. It is the burqua or niqab that completely covers the face, not the hijab.

Picked up for fighting? Doesn't the koran say only husbands can beat women?

Bet she’s not ME race. More like another American idiot who has their brains fried! Moslems go after them like a dog in heat...they know they can manipulate them..and with the youth in our country so dense I will not be surprised they are the ones that will one day lead this nation to accepting Islam.

I clicked your link for her:

I keep javascript off for security reasons - besides, I’m on dialup - and couldn’t see the profile you posted.

What I find interesting, though, is that Piglet is provided as her mainpage photo. You know, Piglet from Pooh stories? She’s represented by a pig.

Islam is a vile, barbaric gutter religion for a vile, barbaric gutter people. It needs to be wiped off the face of the earth.

No clue, sorry. You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t bother with “social” sites.

Really. Where? What "two or three places"? C'mon, you know so much about the Koran, you must know exactly where it sez that. Meanwhile, shut up, take it off. I'd prefer that "shot while trying to elude arrest" was on her autopsy, but hey. Thanks bjorn14.

Muslim woman fights Boulder jail

My limited experience tells me if you fight the law, the law wins.

I don’t see any reason for it to be removed.

In what jurisdiction are you responsible for determining the criteria used to identify criminals and where did you receive the brunt of your experience and education in this field?

Also do all of the agencies nationwide contact you on a case by case basis every time a criminal takes exception to the methods used to run a incarceration type facility?
