Veiled Muslim woman not allowed to enter British Catholic school
Catholic Culture ^ | June 30, 2009

Posted on 06/30/2009 7:29:21 AM PDT by Pope Pius XII

A veiled Muslim schoolteacher was not permitted to accompany her students on the grounds of a British Catholic school after she refused to remove her veil at the school administration’s request. Kevin McMahon, principal of St. Mary’s College in Blackburn, explained that school policy forbids the wearing of the veil.

Good. They want to pull that sort of crap on us, I see no reason we shouldn’t do the same. While we’re at it, ban them all from stepping foot in the Vatican.

As it should be.

A veil could be covering up a man with a gun or bombs.

Good. In 1683 AD at Vienna - the Poles, germans, Austrians and northern Italians Just Said No to intolerant Islam in Europe.

If the Pope had not signed a pact with the King of Poland before the battle - we might all be wearing burkahs.

WTH is a muzzie teacher doing at a Catholic school anyway? Aren’t the children supposed to be taught the tenets of the Catholic faith while there? If so, how would a muzzie accomplish that? Glad she was banned. I say, if you want to be veiled in a Catholic environment, be a nun.

Glad she was banned, too. And why the hullabaloo about this, anyway? Is a Catholic school not able to set its own rules regarding its private school?

“They hate the West.

To destroy that which they hate... the West. Just like cancer cells invade healthy tissue.

It didn’t say she was a teacher there. I would imagine, she was a teacher elsewhere, and just visiting the Catholic school, otherwise, she would have known the rules.

You mean the Brits are actually starting to show some guts? I hope it’s not too little, too late.

Muslims just get hired at these places to cause trouble. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s no wonder countries are sick of it. They’re nothing but troublemakers who love to start things.

They can’t biuld their own countries so they have to come over here and wreck it. If they spent time actually buuilding their countries they wouldn’t have time to start trouble.

Aren’t there laws against wearing pointy headed hats? And shouldn’t the same laws apply to full face veils and burqas?

Yeah I know that’s not what they are talking, but requiring women to wear head scarfs are the first step to making women go back to the 7th century.

Too mooch off of hard workers who have built Britain. Too lazy and hostile to put aside trifling differences and work on their country so they come here and simply start mooching off of welfare while maintaining their tribal behavior.

Their women, however smart are kept veiled, the men are not taught to compromise and cooexist with people from different backgrounds, and they are not taught to be religious in a practical way that enables them to function in a society with different people than them.

If you read the article, you will find that she was not a teacher at the college. She was accompanying some girls there on an open house type day.

What places? She doesn’t work for the Catholic College, she was there visiting with two students she teaches at another school.

So a parent is taking advantage of an education system that her religion encourages her to destroy.

Still a mooch.

I believe the Brits are fed up and understand that the Muzzie moochers are never going to change. All the welfare they pay to them to sit around and breed, all the kids they are merrily having and they are paying for, and how the Muzzies are still ungrateful and that it isn’t going to get better, only worse.
