I don't really agree with banning a clothing item because of one interpretation of it.

As I said before, my only real view on the issue is that, like with all face obscuring clothes, they should be limited in areas where people need to be easily identified. I don't really see the merit of regulating clothing choice otherwise.
Don't forget how hard it must be to actually make friends with anyone with your face covered. This is why some muslim women are consistantly isolated at the school gates.
