RIP to the Canadian soldiers killed this week.  Horrible.  Just horrible.

This story has come to the forefront of the news in the last several days.  A judge in Montreal refused to hear a Muslim woman's case about her car being impounded because the woman refused, on the judge's insistence, to remove her hijab in the courtroom.

If we're so concerned about the causes of radicalization, making people feel as little at home in a society as possible merely for wearing certain kinds of clothing should be on the radar screen.  This kind of thing is only counterproductive.
