I think it could be quite scary for a young child to see a Woman in a full blown Burka. Not exactly attractive are they? I mean they are ridiculous and not even in the quran.

Yes but then theres that rare case were english people had sex on the beach.

but i totally agree with inone its not in the quran and people should not wear the burka!

Covering the hair and that is fine, but for some reason it's been taken to the extreme.

I read something a short while back where they were thinking off making burka's that cover one eye so muslim women can only see out of one WTF!!!!!

They think that if muslim women show both eyes it could make men want to rape them and they say it would not be the man's fault

If you are going to stop Muslim women wearing the burka, then stop catholics wearing a crucifix. Stop Jewish people wearing kippah.

I think it shows a great sign of respect, not only for themselves, but for their husbands/family, and for their religion.

Yous say it draws attention to them - well, should we ban women from wearing revealing clothes? That draws attention to them. What about banning people from wearing them bright colours tracksuit?

A gang of teenagers in hoodies is more intimidating than a woman wearing a Burka

At least a gang of teenagers in hoodies would be more Social though

The women chose to wear the burka , it's part of their religion. It rarely a case that their husbands make them wear the burka. It's a different culture, and it should be respected.

I dont like the burkas at all, but oh well.

And this is what France did. No religion sign in public places, ALL religions. I think it's fair to everyone in a country which gave birth to laicity (Separation of church and state)
However, the Burka wasn't banned as it wasn't as big as today. It created a lot of drama, a lot of controversy, incidents and riots but the French government made it. And this is why Ben Laden wants to attack us. Sorry buddy, we had the balls to do it and to stand out against you.

And I don't agree with it all. People should be allowed follow their religion, both in public and in privacy. People should be allowed celebrate their religion, and support their religion. Banning religion symbols in public is like telling people that what they are doing is wrong, and should be kept to the home. It's like making religion a secret.

It's not about having the "balls to do it". It's about being unjust enough to do it.

it is not harming anyone so why the need to ban it?

well do explain how, then, a group of hoodies "look more social" than people wearing burkas?

The problem is if you ban the burka then the goverment will do as France did and ban the hijab.

Slaves to who? Mohamed? Then catholics are "slaves" for drinking and eating and body and blood of Christ? Ridiculous.
