I'm not really okay with this. By backing this, you are literally allowing the government to tell you what you can and can't wear. Which they already do with swastikas and other shit. But that's not okay in my book. Individual business owners should be allowed to ban what they want, but the government has no say in it IMO.

I find it ironic that a group called the “Freedom Party” is pushing to limit peoples’ freedom.

I called this a long time ago. I've long thought importing these Muslims from the Middle East is just a way to implement authoritarian government because of the self-imposed terror threat. Every time there's a terror attack by one, the next few days will be nothing but talk on what civil liberties need to be done away with next.

This is plausible. A thing governments have always done is to cause chaos among the people to gain more power. Collect gold at such a rate it keeps everyone poor so they rely on the king. Give them an enemy to band against when they are turning on you. Restrict access to things so they get information from you. It's not even conspiracy (in the internet sense of the world), this is what was done. Now all these things weren't done JUST to cause controlled chaos, sometimes they were done for other reasons too. It's why open borders is a bad thing (until ALL people are on the same level and all governments are on the same level, but then you have one world government issues) because everyone is mad at "them". But "them" drive down wages and their culture doesn't have the same laws, so now it's a way for countries to add even more control because of "them". Obviously, like the controlled chaos, this isn't the ONLY reason but it's a part of it.
