can i just say how grape this conversation is . <| sep |> We don ' t have complete freedom of expression , some things are banned that are deemed harmful to society . Face coverings yes , all face coverings , not just burqas pose a security risk and hinder communication , that ' s the reason for banning them in banks , courthouses , schools etc . So the question is , why should Muslim face coverings be exempt ? It ' s so funny when people argue that banning the burqa , a literal barrier , would hinder integration . Furthermore , it ' s on the newcomers to integrate into society , not vice versa . If people don ' t like our rules , they can move , they don ' t have to mow down innocent children with a truck . You saidJust because you do something in the name of Islam , it doesn ' t make you a Muslim . So I ' ll ask again , if doing something in the same of Islam doesn ' t make you Muslim , what does ?
