    For all we know there could be a knife under a Yarmulke, so why don't those get banned too?

    Hats have been banned in many inner city schools in the US because they're a known hiding place for drugs. You could easily say the same about a Hijab, although I don't think there's empirical data that points towards that conclusion

    I support the ban of the veil which covers all the face and body. Hijab is different you can see the face. Due to the security issues is why I want the veil banned same with France so this not racist move.

    No, it is a racist movement because they are impeding on the cultural rights of another race/religion.

    There isn't a difference. Muslims are to Islam what Christians are to Christianity.

    Muslims are the people who practice Islam. People associate Islam with Arabs, and most people think most Muslims are Arabs. Actually the biggest Muslim country is Indonesia, which has quite a different ethnic composition then the Arab countries

    I am pretty sure Muslims are a sub-group to the Islamic religion. Sort of like Catholics, they are a sub-group to Christianity.

    Catholics are Christians, but Christians aren't always Catholics.

    Same can be applied to Muslims and Islamics.

    Muslims are Islamic, but Islamics aren't always Muslim.

    Nope. As I’ve already said Muslims are to Islam what Christians are to Christianity. Islam means submission to Allah. Muslim means someone who submits to Allah. Muslims are simply the people who practice the religion of Islam.

    Actually correct, you could be a supporter of islamic law and not be a Muslim. But not all Muslims are islamists.

    You need to see the face if you get a drivers license, go on airline, banking, among other things the full veil prevents people from clearly identifying the person which can be abused. It puts an unnecessarily burden on the people to accommodate for a pointless issue. Then by that logic France is also impeding on their rights as women can be seen with other males that's a no no, women can work, and no stoning of those who convert.

    I disagree with Che Flegel I see the law of the veil as a breach of human rights and should be removed from Islam. The veil in Islamic culture is to prevent men from seeing a woman's face. They say that a woman without the veil wants to seduce you and therefore you can rape her. I have a friend from Somalia he said that in his country he could rape a woman without a veil. One thing i would like to add, I do not even know why Che Flegel would support Islam because if he comes to an Islamic country and they if find out that he is a a homosexual then they will kill him.
