I think I once saw a video of a white guy grabbing and trying to strip off the clothes of a Muslim woman while screaming something like "tis America".
Okay, okay, I see the angle you're coming from. But I think the freedom to wear whatever should be left to the person wearing it. If women are forced to not wear a burqa it will definitely be dictating their attire,
"you shouldn't wear a burqa because it is oppressive to you, here let me tell you exactly what you should and shouldn't wear".
Since you're arguing from an angle of freedom of women, do you think women should be forced NOT to wear a burqa or should they be given the freedom to choose to not wear a burqa if they so please?
Is that really a western culture specific thing?

Any moral person should be outraged at the idea of the burqa.

We associate that with having something to hide.
