Just like guns, a face covering can be used in the commission of a crime so it should be banned
So can a car, a knife, a baseball bat, a hockey stick etc.
The ONLY time being in public with your face covered should be acceptable is Hallowe'en and the dead of winter. We live in an open society, hiding one's identity in public is not very open and goes against everything Canada has stood for for years.
It's funny too. While courts and politicians were busy making excuses as to why the burka and niqab shouldn't be an issue, they certainly had an issue with a fundamentalist christian group in Alberta whose women are required to cover their faces by "religious edict". They were told they had to remove their face coverings for things like pictures for drivers' licences, appearing in court, etc.
Funny how that works eh? Muslims in Canada are allowed to wear face coverings in certain places that christian fundamentalists aren't allowed to.
Christians aren't allowed to have organized prayer in our public schools. But some people are forced to pay TAXES to public schools that allow islamic religious instruction on the property
during school hours. Since when does 3.2% of the population get to decide what the rest of us have to accept and do? In Ontario they account for just 1.5% of the population yet the Libtard govt spends an inordinate amount of time and resources genuflecting to them and appeasing them.
They'll hammer the shit out of someone who dares to publicly denounce islam and yet they allow islamist publications to continue printing their hatred and bigotry.
Or to put it bluntly; Certain idiots representing 3.2% of the population, with the backing of their bought and paid for politicians, expect the rest of
us to integrate instead of the other way around.
