It's not about having the "balls to do it". It's about being unjust enough to do it.
I can see where you're coming from as UK is way different on that matter but Burka and other religion signs aren't in French values: the church is split from the state so public places shouldn't have any religion signs.

And I think it's a question of having the balls to do it, the situation in France with Muslim people isn't easy at all and voting this law caused a lot of trouble and showed to Ben Ladin we won't break under the pressure.
