Follow our laws & traditions or GET OUT!! Don't expect us to follow your laws & traditions when we go to your countries!! When people go to an islamic country they are expected to follow the islamic laws (eg. women are expected to wear a table cloth on their head - ludicrous!!). Yet the same is NOT respected for American laws - muslims do NOT respect our traditions or they would take off the bed sheets & table cloths while they are in our countries (as we wear them for you in yours). It's only fair. If you don't like it then go back to your country and bring your creepy traditions with you. Women walking around in America with bed sheets look CREEPY and oppressed, whether you say you want to wear your table cloth or not, you still look OUT OF PLACE and MAKE yourself a minority. You segregate YOURSELVES. America is NOT interested in becoming a muslim country at ALL!!!! Follow our laws & traditions or GET OUT or don't expect us to follow your laws & traditions when we go to your countries!!

This is a bit one sided as this study showed Caucasian businesses. How about Asian, Black or other races' establishments and see how they faired with racial profiling. I used to work with someone that worked for high end stores and she mentioned that they do actually go to class to spot someone that will actually spend money vs someone who just wants to window shop and yes they also taught racial profiling. Sales associates will cater more to well dressed shoppers compared to people who wears plain clothing.

The niquab experiment is not fair. In the western world the ones who hide their faces in public are thieves, killers and terrorists. It's not surprising that people would react the way they did. Black niquab looks pretty threatening to me.

All races have 'baggage' they carry around them (good or bad) like it or not. It's based on past behaviors of their very members, that's just common sense. There are however, always exceptions to the rule and therefor one must always be fair minded, IMHO.

Interesting how the three friends faired, while the Asian and white has bias, the black man did not.

This points out to the ignorance and lack of any logical reasoning. These two (dubious) university graduates claim that 'hijab/niqab helps us come close to our religion', ridiculous . Also, they ostensibly beleive that their so called 'modern' religion of peace regards 'women'one notch above men....This cannot be equality. Also, it is the same religion which does not permit women to vote, does not treat women as 'full witnessess'...It means that a testimony of two women is considered equivalent to that of one man.... is this equality and fair treatment of women? Rubbish. \n\nMany religions have lot of such stupid stuff and all have changed with modern times and these guys are clutching hard to 1400 year old illogical traditions. For example, Indians condemned and discontinued widow burning long back, the western world predominantly Christian, has long back take a humane view of homosexuality ( no homosexuals are punished as per the Old Testament any more) and these guys are busy justifying outdated practices. \n\nBetter change with times or else face the brunt of being ostracized to reason you create yourselves. Nobody can help.

Muslim control of Canada is inevitable. I just hope that they are fair to non- Muslims when they get political control. Canadians voted for Trudeau and he promised Muslims, so Canadians need to stop whining.

A woman is worth half of a man in the Muslim religion. How is that fair?

I don't care if you wear hijab but covering face all the time and refusing to take pictures for lisence and passport is not okay. also when the whole world has problem with your religion maybe there must actually be problem you have to fix and not act like you are the victims. we have right to be careful and no its not fair to you but this is what people who follow Islam faith and harm others get you. Islamic people out cry for their right but have to problem taking others away. for example wanting daycares to ban pork just because they can have porn. you should not get special treatment for you religion. I am Hindu/Buddhist and I do not ask people to stop eating beef or many other restrictions that apply to me. the pride of your religion is what's keeping you guys from sensible thinking. and no not all Muslims are the same but the percentage of people that share hatred for other religions is too great too ignore. if you want people to accept you then try becoming a part of the culture and not try to change it for your liking. show love to other faiths and athiests. stop trying to make exceptions for your religion.

If they go to an airport, do they have to take the niqab off? If they don't, its a security issue. If they can see our faces, why is it fair for them to look at us? The koran has been interpreted differently by many generations of people and is changing constantly. This religion is by far the most unstable religion. There is only one god, and to get there does not mean by having a book tell you what to wear and how you wear it. If you want to wear hijabs in a country that is christian, then live like them too. If your not happy living in Canada, then go to where you came from. We don't want you here if you leave that old country because it was shit. Don't come and fuck up our country.

Tell me. If your free. Cant you do what you want.. wear what you want... whos going to stop you? Islam is no more war filled any other religion. All have blood on them. but I also believe every culture has a place in this society. We created it.We created a society that is inclusive and fair and just. Canada is not a christian country... we stole this country from the natives and imposed our own will and religion on them... raped them and beat them until they surrendered... Tell me how christian that is?

Moslems hate everybody from other religions. It is only fair they are hated back.

Saudi arabia banned churches and all other religions except Islam. So it's only fair if we ban Islam to protect this Christianity country. Islam has done nothing but cause loads of problems lately and we don't need it

I just wonder why? Why Muslims? I mean every religion has the extremists! I know Muslims has the fair share and maybe more! But so what I am scared... Scared to wear a hijab in public because a person in my class. Someone I thought was a friend asked me what religion I was. I answered Muslim. He critiqued me he swore and called me a terrorist. In front of my best friends face. She didn't do anything... People seem to believe what ever is put on the media. Yeah we have terrorists but who doesn't! So what we have our religion you have one too. So what I just wonder. Why dose it have to be Muslims?

Ok fair enough, alcohol can cause problems. But a guy walking around on his own with a beer is hardly doing any damage.\n\nPeople are allowed to drink and your 'Muslim area' is in a non-Muslim country.\n\nAnyway don't Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet? Didn't Jesus drink? These guys aren't acting on behalf of Islam, they're acting to gain control USING Islam for their own gain, as if to clean their arses with what's considered the holy book and the word of Allah.\n\nThey are thugs and traitors against the religion of their people. They are letting innocent Muslim people down, and the God they supposedly serve so devotedly, creating hate against their families... But they don't care.

Fair point

hey why do you hate islam? there are a lot of muslims who are really nice people, do a lot of charity work etc like Islam teaches. You don't have to agree with it but I think it's important to respect other beliefs and not very fair to judge them based on the actions of crazy people! There are lots of crazy people in all religions and of no religion, no different from islam....

I'm no fan of Islam but to be fair the report does clearly say that the majority of the Islamic community are condemning this small number of people who are doing this. Perhaps worth taking that into consideration before we all get worked up into a frenzy about Islam taking over the world. Obviously Islam is trying to take over the world but it'll take more than a few nutters on the street harassing gay people for it to succeed.

Britain is a secular country. There is no official religion. London does not have areas for Muslims only. Europe better get a handle on these extremist least you get Islamic Sharia law being imposed against the rule of the land. Best thing to do with these idiots and other idiots doing this sort of thing is to ignore them. If they get heavy then call the cops. At least they will get a fair trial in Europe , unlike most other Islamic countries.Im saying this to both muslims and other religions.
