Not Just for Chocolate.

Very strange news on CNN this morning - There is a small town in Belgium that has a law against women wearing burkas or veils in public; they can be fined or even arrested. It was the strangest thing to watch, all of these Belgium born Muslim women being told that they should "leave Belgium" or "just take it off".. to "be like them". It was somewhat like watching the inverse of the Vice and Virtue squads in Tehran operating.. it was something like.. The Sodom and Gomorrah Squads? I don't know.. It was upsetting. It made me love Canada.
