France has banned Islamic veils on women. should this also apply in America?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) January 25th, 2010

To me veils are like a mask, a veil covers the identity of a person. most states have laws that forbid the wearing of masks. can a veil be considered a mask? veils are used to hide or conceal the person behind it. could a terrorist wear a veil and be unnoticed in America? I applaud France for banning veils in their country. i say when you leave your country for a new country, like America, the veils should be left behind. women in America are proud of their faces and their heritage. I say if you live in my country, you abide by my country’s rules. politicians…...are you listening?
