#5  The Germans didn't mind making Jewish people wear yellow Stars of David on armbands during WWII. The Vichy French went along with the Germans.

#3  Can you not see a better way to level the playing field? Get serious, guys. The stupid law is the one which bans the headscarves of the Muslim teachers. All for one and one for all.
