Fuck those protestors to be honest, hateful shits.
TBH the dumb monkeys should be given a choice - your kid can face the egalitarian teachings that everyone else gets with your consent or the autonomy to choose it gets taken away. They shouldn't get a choice and anybody who wants to protest it can fuck off back to the 7th century.
The problem is these protestors will pull the race card and call anyone telling them they're homophobic assholes "Islamophobes" and say they're "Not tolerant of my religious beliefs," and people let them get away with this shit.
Your religion is not an excuse for you to institutionalize bigotry in a secular country, and it's not any kind of "phobic" to say that.
Shakeel Afsar is the leader of the Anderton Park protests, although he has no children at the school.
Well that just makes the whoel thing ten times stupider.
They have a right to protest in a democracy like all citizens do, the police also have the right to break their hateful protest up for disturbing the peace, intimidation, and blackmail.
Handling this protests is going to be harder than you think, the protesters are already organizing quite quickly and are coordinating nationally. It's actually kind of scary just how quickly and effectively they have been able to organize.

Note in the second half there are people calling for predominantly Muslim areas to not have secular schools, but religious ones which "better reflect the community"
I'm glad nobody in government is taking the bait and backing down on this.
At risk of sounding islamaphobic, but is anyone else offput by groups of women forced to wear black polyester?
The sign in the thumbnail pisses me the fuck of, because it fails to realize that the child is a living individual separate from the mom holding the sign.
wrong birmingham, same politics sadly.
Not really. Most of the ones who wear the buraq are often times connected to the much more extreme versions of Islam. Like Salafism and Wahhabism. And most of the more moderate and less conversative groups denounce this practice.
Did you miss the part where they are forced to look like beanbags meanwhile they are (ironically enough) holding a sign saying "My child my choice."?
I heard from one of my muslim cousins that they're going to skip a year of their sons education by going to pakistan to each them there. They don't even speak the language.
That's what i meant. Even major muslim groups consider these fundamentalist idiots morons.
They should be broken apart.
