Muslims say they have the right to wear veils.Does that mean I can I eat a pork sandwich in Mecca?

1. You're not allowed to go to Mecca, you are not a Muslim. If you snuck into Mecca or somehow got it, there's a good chance that you'd be shot on sight.
2. America was built on Democratic principles and freedom, especially religious freedom. Since wearing a veil is part of some Muslims relgious beliefs, they have the right to wear it. The same can't be said about Saudi Arabia.
3. If you're gonna go and do that in Mecca then you should go to India and eat beef since some Indians wear veils as well. Or go to the Vatican and set a cross on fire since Catholic nuns wear veils in public as well. Or you can just be a hypocrite and criticize only Muslims who wear veils or hijabs.

As an infidel, you wouldn't be allowed in Mecca. Muslims threaten and scare everyone if they get laughed at, because they don't know how else to manage their lives without anger.

not unless you want you head chopped off the authorities. If you preach any other religion in Saudi arabia or if carry any religious relics you'll be deported or beheaded under law.

Why go so far out of your way to be rude and offensive? You seem to be doing just fine here. Instead of returning offense for offense -- thus further cementing our reputation as ugly Americans -- why not try turning the other cheek? Show by example that we can be decent world citizens.

If you let something like that bother you to this extent, I think you have too much time on your hands.
