Democrats Change 181 Year-Old Rule To Allow Ilhan Omar To Wear Hijab In The House

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Because the rules were written for men wearing headgear at a time they never envisioned s Muslim woman being elected

Congress shall make no laws respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

What is not clear?

So they would have made special exclusions for Muslims had they known?

 

[Faun]

Read the first amendment and get back to me

How is allowing a head scarf showing preference?

It's giving an exemption to a religion that none other has.
I thought that was obvious. "Okay, we'll let you ignore the rules everyone else must follow".
What is it about the word preference that you don't understand?

Why do you want to be such a prick a about a woman exercising her religion?

Why do you want to be a prick about respecting the rules of congress that have stood for nearly two hundred years?

Because the rules were written for men wearing headgear at a time they never envisioned s Muslim woman being elected

Congress shall make no laws respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

What is not clear?

And the rule was never established for religious purposes. It was just a general rule for showing respect in the chamber that people shouldn’t wear hats.

181 years ago? Probably not. Both White and Christian supremecy were far more blatant then than they are now.

The idea of a woman voting, let alone being elected to congress was most likely anathama to them as well.

This rule change is not special just for Muslims.

The hijab is not religious headwear. It is a symbol of hatred against Western culture. It should not be allowed in Congress. Nor should Islam be allowed anywhere in the Western Hemisphere.

They stem from scripture in the Qur’an and is a symbol of modesty and faith.

And head coverings for religious belief has been allowed in the Senate. You rightards are only outraged now because your marionette strings are being tugged.

You're a fucking idiot. Koran is nothing but a filthy military recruiting tool designed to raise large armies of illiterate and obedient suicide killers. Islam is not a religion. It's a hostile and invasive medieval political structure akin to nazism which spreads by force.

Of course it is you dumbass. It was not proposed until some district was stupid enough to elect one.

 

[The Purge]

Hey, if the rule has been changed I see no reason that this shouldn't be ok...

Assholes, like this one wants to erase American history.....His motto... MAKE MARX GREAT AGAIN....Pathetic piece of shit!

^^^ Too fucking rightarded. No doubt, there are idiots as dumb as you who say the same about the Old Testament.

And it covers anyone of any faith requiring a head covering. So no, not special for Muslims. I don’t care how bigoted you are.

”The United States congress is not a public place.”

Congressmen/women are public servants and most of the Capitol is open to the public. Even the House & Senate galleries when not in session and to visitors acquiring a pass from a legislator when it is.

How Do I Tour the U.S. Capitol and See Congress in Session?

But that’s neither here nor there, the salient point is that the rule that is in place has nothing to do with religion. It’s not like that rule was put in place to separate church from state. Furthermore, this only applies to the House as the Senate allows religious head coverings...

...he shall not permit any person to place any object whatsoever--including hats, coats, or other personal apparel--or portion of a person on any railing, or any male to wear a hat, except that where a man's religious beliefs require that he wear a head-cover in such public places as the Senate Gallery, then such head-cover shall be permitted;

... so what is the objection other than this being nothing more than conservative rage where the right presents a knee-jerk response to anything the left promotes?

The establishment clause you stupid tard



Es·tab·lish·ment Clause
noun
LAW

1. the clause in the First Amendment of the US Constitution that prohibits the establishment of religion by Congress.

This has nothing at all to do with the Establishment Clause. No one is being required to wear anyone else's religious symbol. Islam is not being elevated to be the official religion of the U.S. House of Representatives. Where are you getting this stuff???

Fear...he's afraid of a young woman in a hijab.

There appears to some smoke-filled back room where a bunch of weirdos make up stuff to disseminate online to the foolish.

Not only is calling someone a "dothead" totally disgusting and repulsive, it also displays the ignorance of the people responsible for it. Wearing a dot on the forehead is a Hindu custom. This freshman rep is a Muslim.

I find it interesting that among several Ethiopians living in my neighborhood, some of the older women have the Ethiopian Cross tattooed on their foreheads.

I guess that I'm supposed to quake in fear as the woman in a hijab bags my groceries at the Giant.

Republicans are racist.

They don't know much about different religions because they simply don't know much about anything at all.

These are people who believe the earth is thousands of years old and we were shimmered into being from dirt. If you believe that, you can be brainwashed into believing anything.

Republicans prove that point.

What the fuck?

What they are doing is promoting one religion over another..

And your ok with it. Of course you are dot head .

 

[bodecea]

The United States congress is not a public place. Your questions are ridiculous. And just that for 181 years no one has demanded an exception to this rule and now the left willingly yields to Muslim demands should tell anyone with half a brain something ominous.

The rightwing echo chamber is full of such nonsense.

This is a feild day for me to point out the hypocrisy on the left..I could care less..

She is flaunting the law..

How about this?

Doesn’t matter. No matter how many times he tries, it will still come out stupid.

Oh? Which religion are they promoting above all others? Why can’t you say?

Back to your OP, you seem to think the Muslims are being given preference, when the Congress opens with a prayer and there is a Chaplain.
I don't get why you feel anyone is being slighted by this.

Fuck you .

You're promoting dot head shit

[rightwinger]

It's huge and this girl is going down she is promoting a religion

Yes. This is about the promotion of Islam by the left. And we must remember this promotion, by itself isn't exceptional.
It's all the other little concessions made to Muslims...Islam taught in public schools, special dietary requirements, prayer rooms, wash rooms, the call to prayer broadcast over loudspeakers, ect.

All special considerations no other religion enjoys and all backed by leftists.

It is about accepting Islam in Congress

No brainer

What a stupid comment. Go look up the word "promote." She could be sitting next to a guy wearing a yarmulke. And I'm not a Hindu, moron, not that there is any problem with being Hindu.
