Good. The burqa hampers vision and movement, interferes with vitamin D production, complicates simple things like eating, makes its wearers targets of widespread prejudice, poses a security risk, looks utterly shit, and doesn't even have a basis in Islamic scripture.https://twitter.com/Independent/status/916288076032479232 …
Forcing women to wear burkas, as many conservative Muslim men do, is a breach of fundamental human rights.

Yes. And so is forcing them NOT to, which was the topic of this thread.

Either burqas are banned, or we allow men to continue forcing women to straitjacket themselves in burqas. The former is a small infringement of human rights. The latter is a huge one.
