If an amusement park has a ban against headgear on rides, do you think they should allow Muslims to wear their traditional head scarves (hajib) on the rides?

In Westchester County NY, the amusement park named Playland had a controversy this week when Muslim people came to celebrate one their holidays at the park. The park rules are “no headgear of any kind on rides” meaning no hats, scarves, etc. The ride operators told the Muslim riders they must remove their traditional head scarves on rides, which sparked some upset guests and about 15 people got arrested.

In our local paper, www.lohud.com, there are several stories and editorials with many comments with people for and against the enforcement of this policy. Playland officials state that it’s a safety issue. The Muslims state that this is their religion and they are being denied their rights. You can look at Lohud and see the articles and comments. What do you think?
