Now that justice has actually been served in the Carnita Matthews case, the right-wing racists and xenophobes are using the decision as justification to launch a new hate campaign! They have renewed their demands to have the burqa banned. Really, the gall of these Islamophobes is almost beyond belief.

Often, they cite the argument that it is oppressive to women. Excuse me! These are the same people who openly tell (and laugh at) blonde jokes! Can you believe the hypocrisy, fellow travellers? T...

Fellow travellers, one thing that always angers me is how Christians are so intolerant of other people's worldviews. Be they worshippers of other gods, or none at all, Bible thumping conservatives just won't let them be.

Take the controversy over a planned campaign against Christmas by a group of UK Muslims. This collection of concerned and quite courageous citizens is rather insensitively labelled an "Islamic hate group" in this article.

Organisers plan to put up thousands of placards around t...
