If such happens on a busy day, a lot of folks will be upset, and offended, if they can not pass in the main hall or enter the stores for look-see and purchases.

Religion practices are for private use and should not take up public space.

Maybe that is why some countries have decided to restrict their access to the Muslims. No more just move in for safe shelter. They must have work in hand for access, or no access. They now have more demanding rules for after getting access. Must learn local history, laws, home ownership rules and requirements, language needs to be local language.

Not sure where that was happening. Might be Denmark or Sweden. It seems that far too many just arrived. Took all they could get, pushed out the locals, turned entire areas into Muslim communities and ignored where they were living. But definitely did make sure they had taken all they could from the hosting country.
 
For whites, the majority role is starting to fade right now a there are more non white babies than white babies. So being part of a minority is really started already.

What's wrong with little brown children?
If we choose to become colour blind what difference will it make if everyone is a little less white and a little less black?
I see that trend happening over here in OZ right now.
 
Many of my son's generation are already colour blind. His best friend since third grade, is a Chinese Canadian. Jesse is godfather to his son, big deal in Chinese culture. Jesse once remarked, if he was trapped in a situation where he had to choose between saving his wife, and saving his best friend, he was unsure of the result.
 
I've become colour blind too. Growing up in white Anglo Saxon/Celtic Australia, I was unused to seeing dark or Asian faces. To me they were other, and very exotic.
Post war migration happened all around me where I live and now I hardly notice different coloured skins or different shaped eyes. They are no longer other or exotic.

To some extent, TV has enhanced this change because we now have a window on the world that did not exist when I was a girl in OZ. We see the full range of human variation in our living rooms these days. What travel I have done has convinced me that wherever we travel overseas, the children are all beautiful.

My grandson is engaged to a filipino girl. She's great. Big brown, dancing eyes. Highly intelligent. Love it. Love her.

Its great to see some of the views expressed on here. Can we really do away with the "them and us" mentality. In the end, we are all "us".
 
My own family reflects the new melting pot society. Ancestors were all Irish/English but with marriage and adoption we now can boast we also have South Korean, American, French and Dutch members of our Australian family.
 
I had foster children of several different races. As are some of my godchildren. I adopted my daughter in the Philippines, right after she was born. I could not love any of them any more if they were Caucasian. In fact my daughter's name is Mia Graciella ....translated from Italian...My Thankfulness. She is one of the most wonderful things that have occurred in my life. Babies and children have no color....no ethnicity...they are all beautiful.
