French government bans burqas.

I dont see why people are opposed to it?

If you want to establish a precedent for criminalizing dress remember that the tables could be turned and your choice of clothing could be criminalized.

I'd rather the precedent weren't set, but I can live with it. Now this means I can get laws passed to do to other people what the French government is doing to Muslim people.

What first? How about the Jewish yarmulke?

Nevermind. The French government banned the wearing of kippot, hijabs and large crosses in public schools in March 2004.

At least they are being consistent in their anti-religious bigotry. That's more my cup of tea.
