An article is circulating the internet that says that Swiss legislators have passed a law that outlaws the burkha...and the fine is
7,500 pounds! (at least that is what it says)...

I don't see the racism. A lot of us here on DR1 have chosen the Dominican Republic as our new home or second home. Home many things have we collectively tried to change with zero success. There are many cases where if you push to hard or tick the wrong government guy off you are done. Fired from the island as it where.
So why is it different if a muslim moves here, the US, Canada etc if they don't get there way its racism.
If the life style of these countries people are leaving or escaping from are so dam good why leave. Why come here and try to change us. So whenever an immigrant starts screaming racism, tell them to move on.
I am an immigrant in the DR. The day I get to change their lifestyle is the day I should leave.

I agree melphis : how can you quibble over the small stuff here if it was so great from where they came from. shouldn't be the other way around : protesting over inhumane cruel treatment that goes on rampantly in their native countries? food for thought.I don't see the racism.

I have a close friend who is a devout and strict Muslim and a great guy, BTW. I have often wondered whether I should invite him and his family to the DR for a nice holiday. But then I think of the rampant and open gambling, the ubiquitous availability and use of alcohol, the global love of chicharon (spelling) the general skimpiness of women's clothing and I sort of get the sense that they just wouldn't like it.
I think in some ways Dominican society is a devout Muslim's version of hell.
