No headscarves, but the decision on banning German-grown suicide bombers is still out
Now that a German high court has upheld a regional ban on teachers wearing the Muslim headscarf in public schools, many German converts to Islam fear that future court decisions could also infringe upon their right to carry out suicide bombings against Americans and other infidels, as well.
“This ruling is a clear reflection of the culture of intolerance, fear and injustice that is slowly and insidiously creeping into German society and is directed against peace-loving headgear-toting Muslims everywhere,” said one irate Islamic legal expert. “Like what are they going to forbid us to do next, from carrying out our religiously-motivated car bombing rituals in Afghanistan and Iraq? Germany has no jurisdiction there, you know. Jeez. What has this country come to?”
The headscarf decision overturned a ruling by a lower German court which had argued that the teacher had a right to wear the headscarf because Roman Catholic nuns in the same region of Germany wore habits while teaching at public schools.
Although clearly discouraged by the decision, German Muslim lawyers are making preparations for any eventuality. It is believed, for instance, that any talk of banning German Muslim suicide bombers in the future will be promptly met with legal suits arguing that Lutheran and Unitarian suicide bombers blow up Americans and other westerners in just the same way.
We’re just regular old-fashioned God-fearing folks like everybody else.

There is also a significant law being passed in France regarding religious symbols in schools. Looks like France is throwing the baby out along with the bath water:
