Father and son banned from council swim pool - they weren't Muslim
Dhimmi in the UK
A stunned dad and his little boy were banned from swimming at a popular public sports centre - because they are not Muslims.
The man, known only as David T, and his 10-year-old son were stopped from going into the pool at Clissold Leisure Centre in Stoke Newington, east London.
Last night embarrassed management at the complex said staff were wrong to turn customers away from the designated 'men-only modesty session' on Sunday morning. The council says the special early-morning get-togethers are aimed at community groups who have strict rules on segregation.
At least the Daily Mail comes out and calls it for what it is, and that is segregation. Lord forbid Moslems should swim with an infidel or - horrors.! I don't know, what would be more haraam for them swimming with a woman? Or a Jew?
As always the comedy gold is in the comments - like this instructional comment from a classic appeaser....and someone that is in need a good shaking:
Again, ignorance of the religion of Islam is to blame. The Muslim men-only swimming session has rules to abide by. Islam commands Muslims to adhere to a high level of modesty with regard to dress code. Men are not allowed to expose the area between naval and knee to anyone other than their spouse and at the same time, they are not allowed to look at that part of the body of other men. This means the shorts would typically be knee length when these guys go swimming and they'd be tugged up to the naval as well.
The non-Muslims who wanted to join them would be wearing normal swimming trunks and would therefore not fulfil the criteria.
The sports centre staff should have been told the requirements regarding the trunks and then the father and son could have been told these requirements. At least then they wouldn't feel discriminated against.
While being treated like second class citizens in their own country.
