Yes, please do bring in your religion and your customs, but please, if they don't pass our laws then don't bring them/do them here. I can understand that some people see this as "discriminating" or "hating" on peoples customs and religions. But if they really do hate hearing it so much, go back from where they came from so they can do that with others who do the same.

No argument here my friend. I try to put myself in their position. If I could leave a place like Afghanistan and come to the freedom and safety of this country I'd try to adapt. This guy, Shaffai has been here since 2007, and left Afghanistan in 1992. It's a sad story.Those poor girls lived in fear for a long time.

I also agree with Tribesman, this has little to do with religion. These are tribal customs dating back to before the beginning of major religions. Cell phones and automatic weapons don't change old customs.
