PUPILS and teachers have been told by an official body not to stare at Muslims for fear of causing offence.
A document intended to educate against religious intolerance and sectarianism urges teachers to “make pupils aware of the various forms of Islamophobia, ie stares, verbal abuse, physical abuse”.
But Learning Teaching Scotland (LTS), which issued the advice to schools north of the border, has been criticised by politicians and Muslim leaders for going “over the top”.
The document states: “Some Muslims may choose to wear clothing or display their faith in a way that makes them visible. For example, women may be wearing a headscarf, and men might be wearing a skullcap. Staring or looking is a form of discrimination as it makes the other person feel uncomfortable, or as though they are not normal.”
* Well, very few of them ‘choose‘- in ‘undercover mosque’ you can watch the video where one of the imam’s clearly instructs his flock to whack the females into submission if they don’t wear the hijab
Osama Saeed, a spokesman for the Muslim Association of Britain, accused officials of going too far. “There are far more serious elements of Islamophobia. People look at all sorts of things — that can just be a glance. A glance and a stare are two different things — glances happen naturally when all sorts of things catch your eye whereas a stare is probably gawking at something.
“Personally I have not encountered much of a problem with people staring. I don’t know how you legislate for that.”
Murdo Fraser, deputy leader of the Scottish Conservatives, said: “In a multicultural society like ours there are people with all different forms of dress and I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect children in particular to look at those who are differently dressed from them. To describe this as a form of discrimination seems to go completely over the top.”
Meanwhile, a survey of London’s Muslims shows that more of them identify with Britain than do the majority population. The Gallup (bullshit report) poll, which is part of the biggest global survey of Muslims, shows 57% of Muslims identified with Britain as their home, compared with 48% of the rest of the population.
The poll also found that 74% of Muslims believe they are loyal to Britain and 78% of Muslims said they had confidence in Britain’s police force — a higher proportion than the rest of the population.
The survey shows 67% of Muslims have confidence in the judicial system and 73% believe in the British democratic process. This compares with 55% and 60% respectively among the general public.
* Here more of the same:
Only one in four Muslims wanted to live in a neighborhood comprised solely of people who shared their religious or ethnic backgrounds. They also claimed a stronger sense of identifying with Britain compared with the general public and had more confidence in the police and the judicial system.
* Flying Pig alert:
Nearly three in four said they were loyal to the UK and 82 per cent said they were respectful of other religions.

England has lost the plot alltogher and the Muslims love it, England is Turing into an Islamic state before the British government’s eyes. It is getting worse and worse as time goes by, my attitude is f**k the stupid government and its stupid insane political correctness. The freedom loving people of England should not stand idle and watch their country turn into an Islamic state, and even more important, for the sake of their children.
Looks like there are a lot of closet peaceful ones in high places in Britain. PC has become a national religion, even more so than Islam.
The burka is visual abuse. The sequence of escalation goes:
- visual abuse
- verbal abuse
- physical abuse
The spiral starts with visual abuse with the burka, we respond by staring, and it only gets worse from there. If you want to stop the spiral, stop it at the source – the burka.
Humans are cultural animals i.e. “cult”. Like every other herd animal, they need to identify first and foremost visually. Foreign appearance hits the subconscious with microshocks – foreign appearance is nauseating. It’s diversity pollution (with respect to the beauty of each within its own kind). And any Western kid’s brain automatically registers “ghost!” when they see a burka. Ban the burka and hijab.
Yes, don’t stare at the Iron Burka as it descends on the West, and don’t stare at the individual wearing it; it might be someone on the watch-list slipping out of Heath Row un-noticed, and we don’t want to upset him by noticing.
It’s only normal to stare at freaks. That’s what people do at the circus.
