Many French Riviera towns in France have banned the burkini
What an absurd ban
Its illegal to where too much clothing to the beach
Worried about sun, the Riviera towns don't care.
Now there are pictures of heavily armed police harassing female beach goers with children.
Those pictures make France look really bad.
France has come to its senses
France's top court suspends burkini ban

Read a little real history tp not just internet crap. The French have had a law for over a hundred years disallowing any religious items in public. It was passed then to curb the Catholic church. A Catholic nation and it is against the law to wear a crucifix in public in France. I might agree that it is a stupid law but it should be applied equally to all religious items.

Sounds a bit suspicious, aye?

At the beginning, it seemed logical that we needed highly trained dogs with a calm temperament. None of these hypotheses turned out to be true. There were many trained dogs that turned out to be perfect and some highly trained dogs that failed, because they wanted to do something. They wanted to do their best, but they couldn’t understand that here the task is doing nothing. Usually these dogs were trained using many treats. When they couldn’t get their treat in half a minute or so, then they were frustrated and we couldn’t use them. Some other dogs didn’t understand that they were required to stay absolutely motionless. They always moved a little bit or they licked their mouth every third minute. And that’s enough to ruin the whole test.

Trump is in Mexico right now having a news
conference. I can't imaging Hillary doing that
under any circumstances. He looks more
presidential every day and she looks more
pathetic. When we actually see her that is,
she's in hiding most of the time.
