Iv'e been reading articles in the newspaper for the last few days about the "muslim veil contoversy". What exactly is going on because I read today that the risk of Muslims rioting in the streets of London is quite high (Like in Paris last year). Is this true or is it being overblown?

why do people say that the veil has a seafty issue?
come on, be honest how many women that wear veils have u heard of that hav been convicted of crimes, or heard that a veiled muslim woman just robbed the bank etc?

or someone ( a muslim women, or "what appers to be") has gotten away with a crime cos we couldnt see the face???

be honest

i can understand in terms of general face to face communication, but isnt this safety issue quite extreme?

I think it's very cool of a guy to be such a good sport to allow this , it proves to me that he is man enough not to worry about his masculinity .

Do you think that people who take part on programmes like Jeremy Kyle,Oprah, Trisha are really genuine? I cannot understand when both parties are at loggerheads that they BOTH can be persuaded to come to the studios and have their lives exposed in such a way! Does money drive them or what?

If I'm Roman Catholic or Christian, would tattoos offend Jesus Christ or God?
What if the tattoo is modest and in a modest place like the ankle, back of the neck, upper arm, back...?

On certain TV shows, some "judges" seem to delight in psychological bullying. Constructive criticism is one thing, but the constant put downs and destructive comments amounts to bullying, which I thought was being discouraged especially in schools and the workplace. Yes, I know it supposed to be entertainment, but it is still sending out the wrong signals.

Let me explain. In 1976 I was on holiday in Stornoway on the Island of Lewis and some friends and I went out sea fishing. I was unfortunate enough to lose a silver signet ring over the side iof the boat.

Now I am working on an oil rig, 40 miles off the mouth of the river Congo. We had fried fish for our evening meal yesterday, and I sliced into my portion of fish with hardly a thought. Imagine my disappointment when I found the ring was not there!! Are coincidences not nearly as common as we have always been led to believe?

what do you think? We all know that marijuana isn't the main stream drug that the politicians want us to think it is, 95% of society has smoked atleast once. It's safer than cigarettes, safer than Alcohol, and would bring in way more tax dollars. Everyone should be fighting for this, but everyone is too scared. They would all just sit back and smoke in private. Don't you want to be able to light up a big ol fatty out on your front porch on a beautifull summer day, or rip the bong sitting shotgun in your buddies car while he drives to get munchies?

Black only awards, black entertainment television, black only scholarships, affirmitive action for jobs

if there ever was a WHITE PEOPLE ONLY AWARDS there would lawsuits and people losing their jobs and getting fired all over the place.

It just seems to only contribute to racism by having them, how will it ever end if we keep separating each other.

The extremely spooky character of Miss Faversham gave me gooseflesh not to mention the marshes, the fog and the prison hulks.
A real rattling yarn with a good scare factor.

This is an open forum and we all have our opinions. Just wondering why some individuals can not be civil when answering. Some responses I can't even make sense of. Also, please use spell check...this may help. Would be nice if Yahoo offered grammar check...would help even more in trying to understand
the responses I see.

Lately, I have been accused of being a racist person.

I would like for you to take time out to review my Q and A.

Here's my view on racism and stereotypes:

Racism is wrong on both sides.

If you are proud of your heritage, good.

Just don't put others down.

Stereotypes are very untrue.

I certainly hate them.

When I see a person on Yahoo ansers with a Q or an A based on stereotypical views, I contest it.

I am a Black woman, and as you know, there have been a lot of bashing against black women based on stereotypes.

Because I happen not to fit into the stereotypes, I am being accused as a racist person.

I paid my way through school, out of pocket (don't you know how hard that is?)

I work for a living.

I pay my dues to society.

I have never recieved aid from the government

Niether am I fat, loud or have an attitude



Am I wrong for telling the truth? What does that tell you about the accuser?

Do my questions come off as racist?
