If you're saying it's bad that we don't pay women wearing burka's any mind, and by association, we just let them go about their business, then what is the opposite of what you're saying is a bad thing? If ignoring them is bad, then...?
If you think not questioning Muslim women in certain areas (whatever that actually means), is a bad thing, then...?
How big of a threat do you actually think Muslim terrorism is? We have people stabbing each other with knives on a daily basis and no one gives a damn. We have sex crimes on the rise, and no one follows priests around.
Is Muslim terrorism a problem? Yes, absolutely. Should it give you or I the right to takes rights away from people because they have the same imaginary friend? Absolutely not.
You can't win an ideological debate by oppressing people. Here's the real kicker, if you want to combat the root cause of religious terrorism, you need to work with the people that actually follow that religion.

Plenty of countries have banned them because they see them as a secunity threat. Anything that covers the face is.
What is to stop someone, anyone, donning a Burkha under which is hidden a weapon or a bomb and walking into a department store for instance. My point is is that due to the sensitivity of issues such as religion, female modesty of Muslim women and PC who Is going to ask them to remove their veil. It could be anyone behind it.
If an attack is carried out or another crime is committed it would also be impossible for witnesses or CCTV to identify and catch them.
How anyone can think it is ok for anyone to walk around in public areas covering their faces and identities in this day and age is beyond me.
