Sydney: Muslim lady refuses to stand when the judge comes into the court room

Not at all lol. My last girl got the boot for being too demanding.

@Cognosco: Yeah, no one should demand anything. Have to ask nicely right?

And ask for reasonable things

@nedkelly: So, she's free not to stand then. Does it hurt you?

@CurvesRock: When my taxes pay her welfare

@nedkelly: pass a law that lets you decide what is right and wrong.

Just a very ignorant person

@lorne13: do yourself a favour by reading this on Canada - DISGRACEFUL

Canada’s global reputation as a defender of human rights was tarnished by the failure of the Stephen Harper government, in power until October, to take essential steps to remedy serious human rights problems. Particular areas of concern include the rights of indigenous peoples, the legal status of sex work, restrictive counterterrorism measures, the impact of Canada’s extractive and garment industries abroad, and the rights of asylum seekers and migrants.

You mean Sydney, Australia?

@nedkelly: looking at the treatment of the native people, are you saying there was no racism?

@nedkelly: because her religion forbids her to respect the legal system?

@InOtterWords: but very very happy to accept the legal system of welfare - double standards

@nedkelly: I've just read the article, agree shameful
