'New York City has agreed to pay a whopping settlement after a pair of women claimed their rights were violated when they were forced to remove their hijabs for mugshots.
A hijab is not a full-body garment. It covers only the hair and neck.
The city said it will fork over the $17.5 million settlement, which still needs approval from Judge Analisa Torres of U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.'
When i left to go-to New York a few months ago it really showed how little all the government worked.. And we were still surrounded by people who would vote blue no matter who?!
Give them a choice: take the hijab off for the mugshot or get returned to your country of origin.
Let's enshrine this into law please.
I think they opted for a better choice:
Commit a crime, then claim crimes against you, profit!
Exactly! Stupid NYC!
Exactly! Catering to this is a slippery slope obviously.
Wow....
