A new hate crime: hijab pulling

From here:

Kingston, Ont., police are asking for the public’s help after a woman allegedly pulled on another woman’s hijab, which police are calling a hate crime assault.

Police said a woman was finishing her grocery shopping at a store around 5 p.m. ET on Jan. 28 when another customer came from behind her and pulled on her hijab.

This opens exciting new vistas for innovative hate crimes: sporran pulling; turban tugging; fez fondling; dislodging busbies with snowballs.

The possibilities are endless.
