Argument: Discomfort with burqa is inadequate justification for ban

Support

Michael White. “France, don’t ban the niqab.” Guardian. February 2010: “You need a much better reason than personal discomfort to do that in a free society. I don’t much care for facial piercings or tattoos either. “So you want to make yourself ugly and unemployable, do you?” I mutter to myself as I pass those who have them in the street. But we shouldn’t ban them either.”
