And don’t forget “the liberating potential of the burqa” as a new feminist fad in the US.

- The inability of people to make sense of matters in a reasonable way is mind boggling. For instance some semi-ignorant new politician we have here posts a picture of a woman in a burka with a pistol. She insinuates that the burka is a security risk. Then it turns out that this was an Afghani policewoman who was murdered by the Taliban.Now, take note. This woman was MURDERED by violent Islamic extremists. But that is not the focus on the subsequent debate by people commenting on social media. No. They are much more interested in how the DEAD Afghani policewoman would feel about her identity and whether she would be offended by low brow Australian politicians using her image in that way. But once again, let us pay attention to the unmentionable fact. The woman in the picture is DEAD. Furthermore she was murdered by religious extremists. Therefore, she does not care how her identity is being portrayed and nor is she worried that a photograph may be used in such a way that misrepresents her identity. She has no concern whatsoever about her identity. She was murdered.
