Now ask yourself again, if you see a person wearing a veil walking down the sidewalk, what would be a rational reaction? That the grim reaper or a ninja is about to attack you? Or that a peaceful Muslim women is just walking down the street minding her own business?
Growing up I never saw any muslim people. I guess back then Canada was full of ...Canadians. Of course the grim reaper and ninjas are 'fantasty' but that doesn't change the association of being dressed all in black and hiding your face. its not that i think they are ninja's..obviously. i have to laugh a little when i see them dressed like that driving an escalade, talking into a bluetooth and enjoying all the advances of the 21st centry while hold still practicing archaic religious ideals.
