Sometimes law doesn't have a place when it comes to personal choice and freedom. For me these kind of decisions are made with the muslim community in mind. By targeting the Burka wearing groups (ie the more extreme elements) you are pushing them away/radicalising them rather than rooting out and addressing the real issues.
What next, ban nuns's headdresses?
the face is used for ID more than any other part of the body
nuns dont cover their faces as you well know
the bolded bit shows as much about your prejudice as the percieved prejudice you feel the french government have.
if the english community in spain all wanted to wear balaclavas for example, and teh spanish goverment said 'we dont mind the sunday roasts, boozing and football shirts, but masks mean we cant identify you on cctv etc so we are banning them'
would you be sympathetic to brits rioting in the costas? its their personal choice and freedom after all
