Banning face coverings

Which is why in my initial comments I didn't single out Muslim women. Face coverings in the public space should be banned, no disparity, and no excuse for anyone to play the persecution card. No special God pass. No arguments.
You wouldn't last two minutes in Tesco's filling up with a smoke going Tongue Big Brenda would have your arm up your back.

Don't even get me started on the gun thing.

Carry on smoking while filling up, it's possible you'll end up with a different type of firearm Smile

Good idea, I've always wanted to see you naked.

No you don't.

It's not for the faint hearted!

Actually, thinking about it, I 've encountered people who should remain covered at all times.

Not because of looks, but because of personality.

Covered up by a speeding bus, for instance...

RE: Banning face coverings
Muslim women are prohibited from covering their faces in the most holy Islamic sight, the Grand Mosque in Mecca:

The face covering is an Arab ancient custom that was never forced by Islam, it's even prohibited during the Hajj and the daily prayer.

In societies though, I support the ban of any face covering because it's a security threat. A thief or a murderer can wear a mask or a veil, which must be banned. But if everything is secured, what's bad in a woman practicing this ancient custom?

Just don't link it to Islam. Islam itself prohibits it in the daily prayers and the Hajj.

How much of the proposed ban is based in fear?

In France (I'm French) these stuff are banned.

The first article of LOI n° 2010-1192 du 11 octobre 2010 interdisant la dissimulation du visage dans l'espace public (Translation of the name of this act by myself : LAW n° 2010-1192 of 11th, October 2010 prohibiting the hiding of face in public space) prohibe the hiding of face in public space by any means (Balaclava , Bandanna , Burqa , Mask , Nikab etc...) but hiding his face in public space is sometime legal under some circumstances (Carnival , SWAT team members needing their balaclava to protect their identity , People practising motorcycle with a motorcycle helmet etc...)

Article 1 of the LOI n° 2010-1192 du 11 octobre 2010 interdisant la dissimulation du visage dans l'espace public :

"Nul ne peut, dans l'espace public, porter une tenue destinée à dissimuler son visage."



Translation of this article by myself :

"No one shall wear an attire in the public space intended to hiding his face"


Second article of this law (Loi) :

"I. ― Pour l'application de l'article 1er, l'espace public est constitué des voies publiques ainsi que des lieux ouverts au public ou affectés à un service public.
II. ― L'interdiction prévue à l'article 1er ne s'applique pas si la tenue est prescrite ou autorisée par des dispositions législatives ou réglementaires, si elle est justifiée par des raisons de santé ou des motifs professionnels, ou si elle s'inscrit dans le cadre de pratiques sportives, de fêtes ou de manifestations artistiques ou traditionnelles."


Translation of this article by myself :

"I. ― For the purposes of the first article, the public space consists of public roads as well as places open to the public or assigned to a public service.
II. ― The prohibition provided in the first article does not apply if the attire is prescribed or authorized by legislative or regulatory provisions, if it is justified by health reasons or professional reasons, or if it falls within the setting of sports practices, parties or artistic or traditional events."

It just removes situational anxiety, yes? If the rest of the tent was distended around the mid-torso, I'd be diving for cover...most of those people are malnourished, in general, and that would be a dead giveaway.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Yes.

Currently he’s locked in my basement in a specially designed room full of beds and wardrobes, any one of which may contain instantaneous and hideous death.
