This is a simple matter of identification. One of the first things Bill de Blasio did when he became Mayor was dismantle a surveillance program in Muslim communities that was perfectly legal, but came under fire from the likes of Linda Sarsour. Sarsour and her ilk now have full influence over the way New York City conducts counterterror operations. This insane decision is in line with that perspective, and represents still more submission to sharia.
“Three Muslim women forced to remove hijabs for mug shots snag $180G payout from city,” by Andrew Keshner, New York Daily News, February 27, 2018:
New York City will pay a total of $180,000 to three Muslim women who were forced to take off their hijabs for mug shots, the Daily News has learned.
Story continues below advertisementSettlements in the three cases were filed Monday in Brooklyn federal court, with the lawsuits spurring new NYPD procedures on photographing people donning religious head coverings.
The cases date back as far as 2012, when a Brooklyn high school girl identified as “G.E.” was arrested after a scuffle with two girls she thought were spreading rumors about her.
The criminal case was dismissed, but it was the initial mug shots that mattered in the civil rights case that followed.
G.E. was taken to the 62nd Precinct, which covers such neighborhoods as Bensonhurst, Mapleton and Bath Beach, where police told her she’d have to take off her hijab.
The teen refused, and was taken to a private room where a female officer shot the photo outside the presence of any men.
But at Brooklyn central booking, police told her there weren’t any female officers to do the picture and the camera was in a fixed spot, so it couldn’t be privately taken elsewhere.
G.E. said a male officer took her picture without her hijab.
Her suit said she felt “exposed, violated and distraught” being forced to take off her headscarf for some 20 minutes as male police and prisoners watched.
Court rulings show in March 2015, police issued an order that changed the rules when people refused to take off religious head coverings. Arresting officers had to tell the person they had the choice of getting a private photo — without the head covering, and with an officer of the same gender.
Last year, judges let parts of the three cases go ahead. All three women settled for $60,000 apiece, according to the Law Department.
In 2015 and 2016, G.E.’s lawyer, Tahanie Aboushi, filed two similar cases — both for incidents that happened after the new police rules on head coverings.
One woman said she had to remove her veil at Brooklyn Central Booking. Another said her hijab was removed at the scene of her arrest, where she was knocked unconscious in an altercation with a neighbor over a parking spot.
At Brooklyn Central Booking, police denied the woman’s request for a female photographer.
Last year, judges let parts of the three cases go ahead. All three settled for $60,000 apiece, according to the Law Department.
On Tuesday, Aboushi told the Daily News the police department sent out additional directives in December 2017 on religious headwear. She credited the city and police, saying the end result was a “collaborative” effort and a “great first step.”…

Agree. As long as Left/Liberal pro-jihadis loons are voted to power they will appoint pro-jihadis in admin and judiciary.
Here’s some great news from fast turning Jihadi hellhole Australia . Judge bans Muslima from court for wearing the Burkha and Left/Liberal pro-jihadis howl in protest http://bit.ly/2nRdtgd

Islamic headscarf is a shroud of death for a free society, says former radical Feminist Zana Ramadani.
Being born a Muslim herself, Ramadani is fearful of her life after receiving countless death threats from Muslims in Germany.. after telling the truth about Islam..

I agree 100%.
Like telling them to go feck themselves.
For some reason when the left is in charge, the right gets screwed, and when the right is in charge, they cower down and try to “work” with the left in the spirit of bipartisanship.
If it were up to me, I would tell the left to be “bipartisan” with the bottom of the Atlantic.

It is quite possible there will be a few muslims in Japan, but, as islam is considered hostile to Japanese culture, which is valued by many Japanese. It is only in the rather snide, smug, arrogant, ignorant, atheist west that culture and tradition are not valued, with any rare and exotic unknown drivel automatically assumed to be better than Western culture.

You are right, so far social media dictatorships are flaunting national laws, selling their customers to oppressive regimes, like pakistan, where the government uses the assistance of spies like twitter and face book to track down dissidents, blasphemers and anyone it feels is in violation of the ignorance that is government policy.

America and the UK share more than a language and shared culture, we also share this silly trend to give credence to some fruit loops “hurt feelings” as a result of them being pulled up short, this time it’s head bags on Sharia compliant dodgy women at a police mug shoot.
If GE felt “exposed violated and distraught” over removing her headbag, would she care to change places with a 12 year old English child naked in a room full of Muslim males ?
Your virtue signalers are as vexatious as ours, are you trying to out stupid us now ?
The concept of American exceptionalism is now looking more like a uniform conformity in a race to the bottom, $180,000 bucks can buy a lot of mischief. Er what’s my hurt feelings worth ? Don’t tell me, I already know.

Feminist™ (not a brave one as in Iran) @lsarsour‘s man can have three wives beside her, allah allows it https://quran.com/4/3
he further allows to beat wives whom only ‘fear’ of disobedience https://quran.com/4/34
he also allows
to kill apostates https://quran.com/4/89 (allah takes over in 4/56)
… and said, Indeed, the disbelievers are EVER to you a clear enemy.’ https://quran.com/4/101
SO MUCH for tolerance for women, apostatas & all non-Muslmis in iSSlam (in ONLY one chapter).

Wait till arrested and they hide a weapon in their headscarves. They should be searched and hijab removed. When my father was on the job he locked up a guy with a wooden leg. At first officers did not check his leg. After my father checked, he found a hidden compartment with small handgun.
So now I bet they can not even check to see if weapons are hidden and any future criminals will use this to their advantage.

They can’t check to see if weapons are hidden in a hijab but, the feds can get a FISA warrant in 5 minutes, if it means going after Trump.

My favorite example of raghead ignorance was the woman in Florida who could not fathom why she could not wear her burqa for her driver license photo. It is a form of official ID, not a fashion statement, you friggin’ idiot! Besides, five will get you ten a muslime woman will remove her hijab if stopped by the cops as a matter of discretion.

All I will mention is that the stupid, liberal citizens of New York elected Bill de Blasio and got what they deserved – and this includes death in their streets. The citizens of Ontario elected the Liberals, got the disgusting Kathleen Wynne liar and incompetent and what they deserved. The electorate of Canada elected Just’n-ass Trudeau, got a fool and Islam supporter, and now deserve what they got. No wonder Winston Churchill said that if you want a case against democracy just for five minutes talk to the average voter. In Ontario many weak-mindedly say: “Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t” – and then vote for a liar and incompetent who runs their province into huge debt and, among other things, high fuel prices to fund the nonsense policies they devise.

Legal Jihad and Victim-hood Jihad is Progressive Islamization toward Civilization Jihad. Stealth Jihadists use Western concepts of “civil rights” or discrimination laws to establish Islamic Sharia which notoriously abuses civil rights and is intolerant of non-Muslims. Islam is the perfection of an evil fascistic ideology that has more political cunning to conquer the West than any political ideology invented by the West including communism or Hitlerian Nazism. It is true, that the Leftist allies of the Muslims are a big help in aiding and abetting Islam’s conquest of the West…simply because the enemy of my enemy is my friend and their mutual enemy is Judeo-Christian Western Civilization.

It is pure insanity to allow people to come to your country and then tell you that they are above your laws. 180,000.00 split three ways is an enormous amount of money. This will encourage more lawsuits against the suckers in NYC by the perpetually offended and money seeking protectees of the Left.

Women who refuse to remove hijabs should be deported to their Islamic countries of origin. If Muslims refuse to obey the laws of America, they have no right to live in America.

Sad, that our country is this STOOPID. After America was founded, our first foreign conflict was with muzzy pirates, in the Mediterranean. Europeans were paying them a ransom for ships and crews that we’re seized. We launched a disastrous naval action, that saw one of our warships, and crew taken by the muzzies. A land assault was organized to free our sailors, but John Adams paid the ransom, before the assault made it to Tripoli. The muzzies have never forgotten.
4 planes were hijacked on 9/11/2001, and we have.
This cancer is using our own laws against us. Our politicians give in to any pressure, by the followers of the perverted child rapist. And threaten prosecution, of anyone who speaks out, as hate speech.
