You REALLY want to feel better about your life, go to the Zuni Reservation in NM.

If it's anything like Browning, it's probably a better place to go if you want to fear for your life. :lol:

Now those people I genuinely feel sorry for. :ohno: :ohno:

It's driving through places like that that'll really piss a person off thinking about all the money we send to "allies" when our own countrymen are living like that.

She chose to attend a college with a uniform policy. If she didn't want to wear the uniform she should have gone somewhere else.

What if she attended a school with a no tobacco policy but she was a smoker? Should they grant her an exception so they don't infringe on her rights? No. She can smoke off campus on her own time.

You are forgetting the "compelling interest" argument here. The school may not use it, but it is available to them.

Another issue that has so far been overlooked is the ROTC requirement. All cadets are required to be enrolled. ROTC does not yet make this dispensation, so if the school wants to say no, there would be ample reason to do so.

The bottom line is they are going to weigh the cost of the inevitable lawsuit (even the cost of winning it) and I suspect the school will cave. Purely a financial decision.

The irony here is that before, she's just another cadet. An equal. Because of her own religious choice she is now going to be the most conspicuous cadet on campus and she'll be shunned because that's what happens to cadets that choose to buck the system.
The Citadel can also focus on creating an open environment where people aren't shunned for their differences. Creating a hostile learning environment is also a lawsuit waiting to happen...
Ibanez wrote: The uniform code is hardly discriminatory. And if she didn't know there was a uniform when she applied, then she's going to have a roughy time with a few other requirements.
It's clearly discriminatory to people of certain religions. Again, it's creating an environment where people are being discouraged from applying to a public institution because of rules.
So you're basically saying that the Cid is fucked if they don't allow it (discrimination), and they're fucked if they do allow it (creating a hostile work/learning environment). :ohno:

Maybe they should establish safe zones just for her as well.

Perhaps lower the performance standards to give little her a fighting chance against the big strong men.

Gotta love political correctness in the 21st century :coffee:

Nobody should believe this is about some Muzzie girl who loves The Citadel but just wants to be modest as Allah commands.

You can bet your ass that CAIR (the U.S. branch of the Muslim Brotherhood and unindicted co-conspirators in a terrorism funding case) is behind this, as well as a dozen other lefty organizations.

No, CAIR and MB are not liberal but they are more than happy to use the liberal "useful idiot" social justice warriors to achieve their goals.

This post is spot on. If anyone thinks this wasn't well planned for months/years then they're really naive.

Damn it. You are on to us.

She was born in a poor white family. We kidnapped her, raised her Muslim, and spent her life training her to get accepted to The Citadel so we could infiltrate and further ruin The Citadel.



Just wait until you see what we have in store for next year's class.
