I'm pretty divided on this.. although I'm more slanting towards for the ban. The issue of Muslim integration is a big problem in France, and I think its pretty discernible behind the reason why they want to cover themselves like ghosts, not to mention that France is pretty much the most secular country in Europe, and what is law, is quite frankly law. However, as a libertarian it pretty much contradicts what I think of individual rights, regardless of the reason they want to wear it..
Though can someone tell me how a Muslim women wearing a burqa can work as say, for example, a pilot, swimming coach, fitness coach, teacher, politician, nurse, doctor, architect, radiologist, policewoman, firefighter, and the majority of occupations? All news sources I've seen with women wearing burqas are either housewives or accountants; honestly how many accountants can you have?
