        I'm not allowed to wear a baseball cap at work, we have a dress code. Is this a violation of my personal liberty?

        I don't see what's wrong with a headscarf. IT'S CLOTHES! If I knew how to put one on, I'd likely wear one on any bad hair day.

        They don't allow most hats or hoods in the workplace so idk why religious people should have a different standard.

        Nope. What's to prevent racist people suddenly implementing an 'all ban' just so they can oppress one group? 😡
