This is an obvious security issue. A hijab-wearing inmate could be hiding something in the hijab. But when it comes to securing special privileges for Muslims (in accord with the privileged status they have as opposed to non-Muslims in Sharia), security concerns go out the window.
Meanwhile, it is noteworthy that Hamas-linked CAIR envisions so many Muslimas committing crimes in Atlanta that it is supplying hijabs in bulk. And that leads to a further question: why don’t these criminal Muslimas have their own hijabs, if they’re insisting on wearing one in prison?
“Atlanta Jail Lets Muslim Inmates Wear Hijabs, CAIR to Supply Them in Bulk for Free,” Judicial Watch, January 11, 2018:
Caving into the demands of a terrorist front group, the City of Atlanta Detention Center in Georgia is allowing female Muslim inmates to wear a head scarf (hijab) used as a symbol of modesty in the Islamic dress code. Hats and other head covers are banned in American state and federal prisons for security and safety reasons. Making an exception to this rule to appease followers of one religion sets a dangerous precedent. Besides, the Quran doesn’t require Muslim women to wear a hijab. The cover is optional and those who wear it do so willfully as an act of worship.
Nevertheless, corrections officials at the City of Atlanta Detention Center changed the rules to satisfy the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a co-conspirator in a federal terror-finance case involving the Hamas front group Holy Land Foundation (read more in a Judicial Watch special report that focuses on Muslim charities). CAIR was founded in 1994 by three Middle Eastern extremists (Omar Ahmad, Nihad Awad and Rafeeq Jaber) who ran the American propaganda wing of Hamas, known then as the Islamic Association for Palestine. The Obama administration allowed CAIR to transform the way U.S. law enforcement agencies conduct anti-terrorism training by allowing the group to bully agencies at the local, state and federal level to alter counterterrorism training materials determined to be discriminatory against Muslims.
This includes getting the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to purge anti-terrorism training curricula of material coined “offensive” to Muslims. Judicial Watch uncovered that scandal, obtained the FBI records and published an in-depth report. CAIR also got several local police departments and the U.S. military to eliminate anti-terrorism training materials and instructors deemed anti-Muslim. At CAIR’s request, Obama’s Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey, ordered the U.S. military to “scour its training material to ensure it doesn’t contain anti-Islamic content.” It’s not clear if the Trump administration obliged with CAIR’s March, 2017 demand that the Air Force sever ties with instructor Patrick Dunleavy, a former deputy inspector general for the New York State Department of Corrections who’s testified before Congress on the threat of Islamic radicalization in the nation’s prison system. CAIR wants to oust Dunleavy over his ties to a reputable think-tank recognized as a comprehensive data center on radical Islamic terrorist cells. CAIR accuses the research group, Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), of being an “anti-Muslim propaganda mouthpiece.”
The Atlanta hijab issue surfaced last year when one of CAIR’s Georgia directors got arrested. Authorities instructed the CAIR director, Asma Elhuni, to remove her hijab during boking [sic] and she refused, citing her religious beliefs. The incident launched a campaign to change the rules at the jail facility that houses offenders from throughout Fulton County, the state’s most populous. CAIR said Elhun “bravely defended her constitutional rights” and ordered a policy change. This week, the group thanked City of Atlanta Detention Center Chief Patrick Labat for agreeing to a policy that protects religious freedom. To celebrate, CAIR is providing the jail with hijabs, “in-bulk free-of-charge.” Now CAIR is demanding that female inmates be granted the option of taking their booking photos in the presence of only female inmates and female staff to avoid violating their religious beliefs involving men….
the truth is rightbehindyou says
Inmates running the asylum is a constitutional right ?
StellaSaidSo says
So, she ‘bravely defended her Constitutional rights’, did she?
What a nerve these people have. If CAIR had their way, there would be no ‘Constitutional rights’. There would be only SHARIA.
WPM says
You do not get to pick what kind of clothing you wear in prison .Prison is punishment not a day camp or a college campus. You lose your freedom in prison ,if you as a Moslem woman cannot be seen in public by men then solitary confinement in an all woman prison is the place for you. You will not see anybody looked in you 6 by 9 cell 24 /7 .with your Koran and pray rug timed showers and toilet .The guards can just slip a change of clothing threw the food slot in your door with food and toilet paper. A female doctor could check you out a few times a year that it .
mortimer says
A cloth or a towel can be used to strangle another inmate, a guard or oneself… none of the options are positive.
The veil is the ultimate symbol of misogyny and patriarchy. Why do women need to be patriarchalists IN a WOMEN’S JAIL?
This is more absurdity.

“This is an obvious security issue. A hijab-wearing inmate could be hiding something in the hijab. ”
I’m not going to argue with that. There is a difference between saying Muslims cannot wear hijab because Islam is evil and a clear security issue.

StellaSaidSo says
I totally agree, lebel, it is a security issue.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Agreed.
But, it should not be forgotten, islam is also evil.
StellaSaidSo says
If only we could forget…
CRUSADER says
Hilarious…about Graven Image in “3, 2, 1…..” 😉
Anyway, if they want to be good Muslims, they should serve out their terms in prison first,
and show they can be good American residents/citizens, before being let out, and at that
point they can be free enough to wear their head gear of their brand choice.
CAIR is so criminally connected, of course they hook into prison systems….
CRUSADER says
Well if this is the case:
>>
(Islamic clothing) is not truly about religion however.
It is about Muslim (gang affiliation).
It is like when a neighborhood dog lifts it’s hind leg and wets a fire hydrant to let other dogs in the neighborhood know he is part of the same pack in the ‘hood’.
<<
Then….we should employ the rule on gangs and colors.
If a gang member of one gang is caught and convicted of an act,
even if you are just standing on a street corner, you are also part of that gang,
and you are also culpable of that crime….
SLAMo on Islamo.
Put 'em in the clinker where they can rot.

“Meanwhile, it is noteworthy that Hamas-linked CAIR envisions so many Muslimas committing crimes in Atlanta”.
I needed a good laugh and this got me. But it’s an excellent point. Why would so many Religion of Peace women be committing crimes?
I AM THE INFIDEL YOUR IMAM WARNED YOU ABOUT says
The hijab can be used to commit murder (strangling an inmate or a prison guard) or commit suicide. Doesn’t it sound kinda strange that female prison inmates in an ALL-WOMEN Prison need to wear a hijab.
This should be stopped now before it gets out of hand.
Why are muslims being given special privileges?
esther says
the special privileges thing MUST be avoided. I support equity—-if muslimahs get a special thing—-
there should be a compensatory special thing for kaffirahs

CogitoErgoSum says
So a Muslim woman is not supposed to draw attention to her hair by wearing a hijab but it is okay for her to direct a man’s gaze somewhat lower by placing a sign over her breasts?
CogitoErgoSum says
Here’s another thought: if a woman prisoner has a problem with others seeing her hair while she in jail, wouldn’t shaving her head achieve the same goal while eliminating any security or safety concerns?
LeftisruiningCanada says
good point.
That photo is quite revealing.
“Gaze into my breasts”

It worked, didn’t it?

Why a ‘good’ muslima would want to stumble those whom she claims to be dressing modestly for is another question.
WPM says
If they can show their hair have them shave their head problem solved.
CRUSADER says
Capital concept.
Shave all muzzie ladies….
DHazard says
What choice will they make if and when they get out of prison? How many will continue to wear the hijab, or is this just another symbolic battle pitting libtards and loud Muslims against those racist idiots who believe in common sense?
StellaSaidSo says
‘…symbolic battle…’
Nailed it.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Yes.
So much of this stuff is symbolic.
But when the symbols are lost, it’s not long ’till the things they symbolize are gone too.

OH HELL NO – THIS IS AMERICA! – DO THE CRIME – DO THE TIME – NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES, PERIOD!
YOUR NOT SPECIAL – YOUR IN JAIL… GET OVER U’RSELVES… ENOUGH OF ALL THIS BS, ENOUGH! – TIME TO SEND CAIR ETC OUT OF OUR COUNTRY! CONSTANTLY TWISTING AND DISRESPECTING OUR LAWS TO SUIT THEMSELVES, ENOUGH!

Should be burkhas. And the male Muslim prisoners should be the ones wearing them.
