Now you see me, now you don’t
When you look like this, its kind of hard to imagine why you’d need an ID at all. Even if you took off your sheet, nobody could prove it isn’t you. Lesson to all underage drinkers, a fake ID like this is sure to work, though you will also have to dress like Fatima here. |
August 15th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
It’s not a sheet you moron, its called a Burka, and if you wold research your own history you would know that even in the US and Europe the woman covered their hair, the reason they cover the eyes is because of our religion and the eyes must not be seen by any man other than the husband. Stop being such a dick and open your eyes to culture, douche bag
August 15th, 2008 at 11:36 pm
edit *burka.
August 16th, 2008 at 1:07 am
Listen you sand nigger… You can take your burka, your camel, and your IDEs and go back home. An ID is for IDing a person. This aint a person. It’s a fucking sheet !
August 16th, 2008 at 2:19 am
Saud, did you ever think that religion tends to be a tad bit ridiculous (AKA stupid beyond belief) sometimes?
August 16th, 2008 at 5:24 am
wow racism
that’s nice of you.
It’s people like you that make other countries hate us.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:15 am
I agree with david that religion gets a bit ridiculous, that’s one of the reasons I am agnostic. But I also don’t think anyone has the right to mock or judge people on their views.
August 16th, 2008 at 10:09 am
I respect ANY religion that respects my religion/tenet(s). Period.
August 16th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
and i dont believe its okay for them to come over here [england] and bomb innocent people so they can get seven virgins or whatever it is!
so im going to continue judging and mocking them thanks.

Um, anyone that has any clue about Islam would know that Muslims don’t drink alcohol. Especially if they were faithful enough to wear a Burka.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:17 pm
Ohhhh boy. I hate the racism above and respect the Muslim faith and traditions.
However, there is an interest in security here that is being overlooked. I don’t mean to single any one religion out in saying they must be able to take a photo of your face - it should be mandatory for everyone. Surely, you can see the security flaw in allowing photos like this to be taken? If it would help, perhaps they could take the photo in a private room, so only the photographer and security camera could monitor the situation?

I feel sorry for this lady, I lived in NJ for 25 years and this woman probably never left her house. Princeton is a liberal area filled with ‘progressive’ fruitcakes and other misinformed types.
That’s all irrelevant anyway, these ID’s aren’t accepted any longer in NJ, they are all digital now and you have the same chance of getting one wearing a burka as you do a freddy kruger mask - YOU DON’T. As much as the state respects religion, driving in NJ is a privilege and not a right - either take off the costume or don’t drive.

It is not racist to criticise a religion - or for that matter, to insult it. Religion is *not* race, they merely happen to correlate due to coincidences of geography. Religion is something which people are able to change, and which directly influences their behavior and decisions, both good reasons that it should not be subject to the same protection as race. To say that wearing the burka is a sign of male oppression or of stupidity may be insulting, it’s factual accuracy may be debatable, and it is sure to upset a few people - but it is in no way racist.
And yes, it does render the ID pointless. It creates the untidy situation of one religious group being effectively exempt from ID laws because it conflicts with their belief. Very untidy - if every religion were allowed to simply declare itsself immune from the law on religious freedom grounds, there would be a lot of religions declaring it against their faith to pay taxes. Not to mention the difficulty of all the people who believe their religion demands they commit violent crimes - is it violating their freedom of religion to stop them?
August 16th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
Hey Al_Khayyat, I’m also Saudi, and a Muslim, just to be clear, but let me remind you of a ‘hadeeth’ by prophet Mohammad.
“If you would advise someone, advise him with what is best”, you calling him a moron and a douche won’t do anybody any good, you would only earn your self sins, and make us look bad which needless to say our image to the world ain’t bright at all.
With that being said, covering the eyes is not cause the religion said so, a woman ain’t a trash bag, she has the right to at least, you know, f’ing breath and look where she’s stepping on, covering the hair is O.K, but where did you get the part about covering the eyes and the face?
Covering the eyes is due to the customs of the people of one’s country, do not mix religion with customs and spread BS.

You know what? This is America. Part of being an American is assimilation into American culture and ways of life…and God forbid, even speak the language. The ID is there to identify someone. If their face can’t be seen, then they can’t be identified. How can a person drive like that? Obstructing the view is a hazard to her and other motorists. Besides, this is the 21st century. Isn’t it time for women to shed the burka and stop being objectified? It’s not the 800s anymore.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Jeez, Saud Khayaat, calm down. No wonder everything’s so crazy in your part of the world, if you get upset like that at someone using the wrong word. Chill, guy.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
In Saudi Arabia, women aren’t even allowed to DRIVE. At least here she can drive. Although honestly, ANYONE could drive with THAT license.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
that chick is 6′3″
August 16th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Seems kind of irresponsible to me that anyone can claim “religion” and not have to show their face and get a driver’s license. What is the point of having a photo ID?
August 16th, 2008 at 7:37 pm
loool..that’s a little rediculous and i’m muslim myself…..there’s stupidity and there’s religon…this is sheer stupidity
August 16th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
Doc, I hope you don’t think you’re being patriotic. You’re an insult to everything the United States of America stands for.
Who am I to judge? Well, I did my time in Iraq. For a 15 month deployment I ran up and down the roads from Kuwait to Seria. Over 200 missions total. Got a Purple Heart from an IED and met a few Muslim families along the way. I now I have a much deeper understanding of their culture.
I personally don’t believe in a ‘higher being’. But I also don’t believe bashing someone else because they have a god and choose to serve him/her/them as they believe makes you ‘cool’ or whatever it is you’re trying to prove.
What YOU need to do, first as a human being and second as a U.S. Citizen, is wake up to the world around you.
If you think that calling someone childish names on the internet is funny or furthers your ’cause’ - you are sadly mistaken. It makes you look ignorant and arrogant.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
Yeah, religion is lame, but in my opinion, they are all about equally lame. Oh, you think christianity’s any better? Maybe you should look back to some of the laws and such that are in the old texts. There’s stuff that would curl your hair. This society just ignores the parts they don’t like, because it isn’t convenient. At least this woman has the courage to live by her convictions and her faith, regardless of the inconvenience.
Of course religions don’t respect each other: one of the basic tenets of all religions is that there’s one true path, and all the others are false.
The original post here is actually incredibly stupid and short-sighted. This would never function as a way for an underage person to sneak into a drinking establishment: if you’re observant enough to wear this thing, you SURE AS HELL aren’t drinking alcohol.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
You spelled “would” wrong. So put down the sociology book and pick up a fucking dictionary, you sand nigger. (lol thanks Doc.)

And yeah, this is why we’re in so many religious wars, intolerance, oh and btw, its IED (imp. Explosive Device), IDE = computer tech, if youre going to be a racist hate monger, at least get your terms down. You really make your country look bad, I’m so glad I’m not american, I can feel safe/proud when I travel.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
Problem: your country is full of buttassugly women.
Solution: Cover that isht up.
Excuse: Invisible man in the sky will kill us all if he sees our uglyass women any more.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
Durka Durka Jihad!
The burka is nothing more than an instrument in the institutionalized oppression of women in your bogus cult.
Make her show her face, if not send her back to the desert.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Is that a real ID photo? you would think people at the DMZ have her take off the scarf or so called “Burka”.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:52 pm
@Khayaat
wow way to be but hurt.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Saud Khayaat, go blow up something dirty terrorist.
The islam is the most ridiculous belief ever.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Sean: Religions don’t “respect” anything. People respect people, and if you want to remain true to your philosophy, you should only respect PEOPLE who respect your tenets. Start from there, work with that.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Do we really need more evidence to prove that all religion fucking sucks.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:57 pm
It’s blatantly a man underneath that curtain.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:57 pm
It seems to me that you would not be allowed to legally drive with you head completely covered by this garment. If your religion forbids you to be in public without it then I don’t think your religion would permit you to legally drive and therefore not need a drivers license.
If you were just going to get it for the purposes of an ID then that too won’t work because you cannot be identified using it. And man 6′3″ is one very tall woman.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:58 pm
Your religion is bullshit because it forces women to wear sheets over there heads and have no rights as human beings. You can beat women and rape them. Your the one who needs to open his eyes saud.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
IDEs?!?! HHAHAHAHA.
Hard drives?? IED you moron.
August 16th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
read the Qur’an and tell us where it says so
same can be said about homosexuality and the bible, of course.
religion is different from what your priest (of any kind) says
August 16th, 2008 at 8:01 pm
This is culture, not religion. Other Muslims, like in Turkey (or Iran,,,) do not wear a burka. Now if you started making fun of them because they take their shoes off before entering their place of worship, that’s religion.
For instance, notice the first photo from this website: http://armenianhouse.org/bliss/turkey/06-armenians.html
Armenia borders Turkey, Iran, … but Armenia is christian; covering a womans head is practiced in many places- covering their face is part of many marriage ceremonies; yet covering their face all the time– that’s culture.
And is perfect for controlling people.
Respecting culture is fine, but that culture using it as a means to perpetuate inequity and inequality for women in political matters is not acceptable.
And covering your face in an photo required for identification makes the ID useless, as pointed out.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:03 pm
Dear Saud Khayaat, Your religion is a crock of shit, go blow some more innocent people up in markets using mentally disabled women. Sorry your men have no confidence and treat women like they are prisoners. You must all have like 1.2 inch wangs in the middle east. All I hear is about how bad you treat them.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:03 pm
I don’t think any Motor Vehicle Administration would print “hidden” under eye color. They’d at the very least ask her what color they were and take her word for it … this is fake in more ways than one.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
Any religion which cuts off things you can and cannot do in your life is stupid. eg cannot eat this, cannot wear this. ridiculous
And for the picture.. yeah why bother making that ID… it cant be safe to drive a car wearing that outfit anyway.. In Germany its illegal to wear flip flops when driving, and this should be illegal too
Its ok to believe in something and it might even be good for for people with no friends or low selfesteem.. I dont believe anything that cuts down on things i can do in my life.. wake up believers
sorry for my bad english and typos
August 16th, 2008 at 8:06 pm
Except for the Jews… those guys are just ASKING for it.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
did you guys ever hear about that women that got raped by 5 men in the middle east? she went to jail b\c she was not with a relative, they went off scott free, what a great religion that is. The middle eats has soo much oil and what does it have to show for? Nothing, not shit you guys just fight one another over and over. Nice life
August 16th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
I think we’re all ignoring the real problem here: women can’t drive.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
God-damn Commies!
August 16th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
The funny thing is most of the major religions (Mainly western ones) have but one entry point - Judaism, the primary arguments all center around who the real prophet is (Jesus or Mohammad or Joseph Smith) and the written “teachings” done from 40 to 100 years after there deaths by the very same people whose power to rule comes from those documents
So face it - you’re all Jews anyway if you follow those religions.
What’s really hard to imagine is that anyone thinks that irrational beliefs need respect. The individual who believes she is being eaten by small aliens from outer space deserves the same respect as someone who believes in ritualistic cannibalism, or talking bushes, or magic flying horses.
Heck I believe in flying invisible fire breathing dragons in my garage (see Carl Sagan for more details)
Welcome to the Human Race - You get one lifetime pass to the ride then it’s over - make the best of it while you can.
August 16th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
You are all retarted. Thisis a fake ID. It’s a joke. You think somebody could actually go down to the DMV like this and get a lisence printed without their face on it? Yes I am Muslim and yes I am from NJ. This is a joke. Everyone on both sides shouldn’t take this so seriously.
