Look at the motivation behind the ban. Is it, at heart, security concerns or something other, like a cultural war against religions fundamentalism? Name any society that isn't considering such a ban that is doing it out of security concerns, and not because they don't like Fundamentalist Islam in their society. It is because of a set of value some hold in society, and try to express, that the ban is put in place. Security is said as the reason, but is it really? And, when this right to believe is fought against, combined with the inability to hide onself to protest it, then what do you think happens? Give the government the ability to track, know and follow what everyone is doing in society and what comes next here? In thast case, what is the real security risks? |
Well you are being a little paranoid to think that. The far left and the far right are both using fear to justify their concerns..ie fear of fundamentalist muslims freely practicing their ideologies/values and imposing their views on young followers VERSUS fear of goverment invading one's privacy and one's right to protest anonymously.
IMO my security concerns with the full face covering is legitimate, but that does not mean I fully oppose someone's right to practice their own beliefs.
