Re: Ban the burkha ?
I think the argument is whether it's a religious requirement or just a personal choice to hide your face.
we determined that a 'hoody' wasn't anything at all to do with religion but just a personal choice from the 'Chav' culture to hide their face. we even determined that smoking was not religious, just bad for everyones health

i think the question is -is it acceptable to hide your face in public places .

Re: Ban the burkha ?

Not to hide there identity's.
Oh and it would keep you nice and warm on a winters day.
Try doing this when having just a shield and bog standard issue clothing and i think you would opt for the wardrobe these guys are wearing.
