Paris Opera House Expels Woman for Wearing Niqab after Cast Refuses to Perform La Traviata
When you let government solve a problem they often just create 3 more so you look back nostalgically at the days when you just had that problem to solve, which, in a macabre way, is kind of solving the problem in that it makes you wistful for such a simple one. Here is how actual people, when given choices, solve them. Congratulations to the French Opera company for this. It was a brave and powerful, and let us all hope precedent setting move.

A Muslim woman wearing a niqab has been forced to leave a theatre in France after the cast refused to perform in protest against her attire.
The niqab is a traditional Muslim garment which covers the head and chest, with the exception of the eyes. It is illegal in France.
The incident occurred during the performance of La Traviata at Opera Bastille in Paris, the opera house’s deputy director Jean-Philippe Thiellay told AFP.
The episode is believed to have happened on 3 October. However, French media did not report it until Sunday [19 October].
The woman, from the Gulf State, was visiting France with her companion. She was asked to remove the veil or leave the theatre as “performers said they didn’t want to sing,” Thiellay explained.
Western music is haram for filthy oil tick Muslims, they need to be stoned.
La Traviata is more than music.
They choose La Traviata as halal? Don’t they bother translate the title?
A free market non governmental solution, the left will be upset because people thought and acted on their own.
