Swedish Shop Refuses Woman Service For Not Wearing Hijab

16

A woman in Sweden said she was denied service at a shop owned by Somalians because she wasn’t wearing a hijab.

Well now: Maybe this woman should be arrested for a hate crime — yes?

Non-Muslim businesses can’t discriminate against women who wear the hijab. So how come Muslim businesses can discriminate against women who don’t wear the hijab?

Soheila Fors

The woman, Soheila Fors, is a well-known activist in Sweden. And she said the discrimination she suffered made her feel like she was back in her home country of Iran.

Breitbart has the story:

Forssaid that she was out shopping for dresses and was shown some by the female retail clerk. Shortly after a man, whom Fors deduced to be the owner of the shop, spoke with the clerk in Somalian about Fors and her lack of a hijab, Fors wrote in an article for Nyheter 24.

“The woman turned to me and said, ‘Unfortunately, you can not buy it’. ‘Imagine going to a store and not buying food and milk,’ I replied. ‘Sweden is a democracy,’ she replied. ‘Yes, yes, it’s a democracy. I’ll get in with or without hijab’,” Fors claimed in her piece.

The experience left Fors saying she felt she had, “returned to Iran’s religious oppression.” Fors left Iran in 1993 after being part of a movement against the Islamic government there. Since then she has been outspoken on Islam and women’s issues and has led her to face death threats from supports of the Islamic State terror group.

“They write that they know where I live and to kill my family,” Fors said back in 2015.

According to Fors, many people on social media have told her to file discrimination charges against the shop but she has decided against the idea saying it could lead to potential ethnic conflict between Iranians and Somalians in Sweden.

Instead, she has advocated a boycott of business that employs the same kind of practices saying that Swedes should not spend their money in shops which take such actions.

The two ideas of feminism and conservative Islam have repeatedly butted heads in Sweden in recent years. One of the most well-known and recent cases was when several feminists felt they were forced to leave areas considered “no-go zones” because of the presence of strict Islamic beliefs.

In the Stockholm no-go suburb of Husby, the local government is determined to fix the problem of women feeling unsafe though what they are calling “feminist urban planning.” Advocates of the new policy say things like more street lights and moving certain cafes will make the area more safe for women.

Some Swedish feminists say that the real problem in the suburbs is not the Islamic hardliners but rather men in general. Head of the Swedish feminist political party Feminist Initiative (FI) Victoria Kawesa said, “the common denominator is men’s oppression and domination.”

Men should remember this when dealing with feminist. They see no difference between the most polite of gentlemen and an invading raping terrorist. Women who make claims of sexual oppression when they are called ‘Blond’ – sometimes legally have no problem to referring to men in terms of the worst of all humanity.

sweden, who cares, it is a write off, a derelict of a nation now adrift waiting to wash up on the rocks of socialism and sink.

It is impossible for me to understand why a nation of peaceful, law abiding citizens living in a very safe environment deliberately gave all that up to live in perpetual fear of violence from people who have zero respect for the law. Then to find out that these newcomers are not even subject to the same laws that they, the native citizens are….why? Just why?

I’m beginning to think humans have a built in suicide gene which activates under specific conditions (overcrowding, boredom, ???) like lemmings and rats.

Sweden is broken. Beyond repair. I wouldn’t mind England taking in white Christian Swedish refugees to help balance our own demographics. But no liberals, thank you.

Good for you, you stupid bimbo, as an activist “from Iran”, you should know better, and not go anywhere near any such Krap hole as that. Now eat it, piece’o garbage. What a parasite… and we’re supposed to fee sorry for her. I don’t. If enough people boycott such toxic dumpsters, they’d close fast and others won’t dare opening. She is an activist from her behind but she goes and shops at a store she knows hate her kind.

What do you suppose will happen when they start raping women in the US and start demanding that we convert to their way of life. There are a few states where it looks like they have taken over entire cities. No one is stopping them. They think they are superior to Americans.
