The Bodu Bala Sena has long been suppressing freedom and multiculturalism in Sri Lanka. Their actions, speeches and brutal approaches to other races and creeds in the island are not only undemocratic, but contain elements of Nazism. Under the guise of protecting Buddhism they are refusing others the right to practice and to live within the bounds of non-Buddhist life. Muslim shops are attacked, Halal packaging has been discontinued, Christian churches are attacked, and the Eucharist desecrated. Now the BBS wants to ban women from wearing the Niqab and the Burqa. This is not Buddhist, it is not decent, it is not human. Please sign this petition in solidarity with those who support basic dignity and the freedom to live within one's chosen religious and cultural beliefs.
Seeing these names stack up reminds me that my neighbors deserve to walk down the street without fear of targeted hate. We are right on the edge of reaching one hundred signatures and I need you to pass this link along to your own circles right now to help us cross that barrier.

Watching the count rise reminds me of the friends I have seen lose their homes and safety to this hatred. We need to hit one thousand signatures right now so the authorities cannot ignore the scale of our demand for peace.

As a Canadian Muslim woman I ask my Buddist Brothers and Sisters to please show show cpasdion and tolerance towards your Muslim counter parts in Sri Lanka- so that God the Creator Might Show Mercy and Shower Blessings on you and your families.
The showing of power and might in this short lived life of this is simply a Test from our Creators.
I pray we all pass the Tests we are Put through by our Creator.
God Bless

The BBS is acting as an unofficial Police Department. Even the police department can not take actions against them

Ban the BBS immidiately. Because theirs aim is distroy the muslim's business and killing muslim comminity in Sri Lanka. Current Mahinda Rajapakse's Goverment doesn't take necessary action against the BBS, because Goverment needs BBS support for the forth coming election to get the Budhist voes to the goverment.
