News - Tesco staff in altercation with Jedi Knight

[JPreston]

Do Tesco have this policy with Muslim women wearing veils or burkas?

Some how I doubt it.

Of course not

Furthermore this is not a security or public safety requirement:

Motorcyclists are required to remove helmets because many robberies have occured where the perpetrator wore a helmet as a disguise.
Burkhas are permitted despite several robberies that have been carried out by people wearing them as a disguise.
There have been no recorded instances of a crime being carried out by someone dressed as a jedi.

All religions are equally invalid.

This country allows too much freedom - that is the problem.

[father smurf]

.. unless you are a Jedi.

Hence I no longer shop at Tesco

Thread hijack over to question time on the issue of freedom.

I'm a Jedi as per the census. It's not a joke, it makes several points including the fact that religions are invalid.
