There is a compromise in this matter which can protect one's right to religious freedom and protect the person's dignity. This can be done by banning the burka, which covers a women's body entirely and allowing the Hijab, which covers only the hair to be worn. Whereas Islamic countries do whatever they see fit according to their religion. In western countries, it's high time ridiculous medieval customs such as this be given a cold shoulder by applying this restriction rather than include a ban altogether. Like with many other things, people will eventually adjust to this change and the whole thing will phase out in time. Side: YES/FOR

no, wearing a burqa should't be banned, although it should not be imposed on women who do not wish to wear it. wearing a veil comes in customs of the Muslims, and the govt. should not interfere with religious rights of people... banning on burqa or veils will mean interference on people to follow religious rights. Side: NO/AGAINST
no, wearing a burqa should't be banned, although it should not be imposed on women who do not wish to wear it. The point of banning the veil is to prevent the husbands and fathers from forcing their wives and daughters to wear it. wearing a veil comes in customs of the Muslims, and the govt. should not interfere with religious rights of people... Religions are not granted special treatment however. They may follow rituals and customs as long as these do not harm a person's dignity, liberty, or body. banning on burqa or veils will mean interference on people to follow religious rights. The right of a woman to not be treated as second class in her community because of a cultural obligation to hide her presence from society is more important than that. Side: YES/FOR
The point of banning the veil is to prevent the husbands and fathers from forcing their wives and daughters to wear it. that's what we don't want...we want women to wear burqas only when they want it... They may follow rituals and customs as long as these do not harm a person's dignity, liberty, or body. It matters on how they want their religion to be...If they want to wear burqas, and we ban them...is that not exploitation of their liberty?? Side: NO/AGAINST
