Then what's the point
Lol, I know what you're getting at. That women wouldn't even wear niqabs at home. But the point I'm trying to say is, niqabs/burkas are not necessary in Islam. Hijabs do just fine as an alternative.
Then what's the point
Freedom of Expression doesn't apply where public safety is concerned. Just like it's not allowed for you to yell, "Fire!" or for you to wear ski masks into banks, niqabs shouldn't be allowed. Religious symbol or not.
You ignored the part where I mentioned ski masks. Ski masks are also a piece of clothing that only shows the eyes. I can link normal people wearing niqab to normal people wearing ski masks.Talking out of your arse? How you linking normal people wearing niqaab to public safety?
You're aware niqab is a piece of clothing? And can not be compared to actual provocative yelling fire you implied?

Well ski masks aren't getting banned. I was expecting better rebuttal. Let people wear what they want long as they don't break any laws. Is that the whole concept of democracy?

balaclava mask Are banned. What's the difference between that and the niqab?
I think questions surrounding public safety are valid and a huge concern.
and freedom of religion.Niqab is a symbol associated with religion, balaclava mask not so much. Besides in the states is not banned, hey I don't even like niqab but is rallies behind freedom of expression.

Except for the fact Switzerland and France banned ski masks. Same goes for states in the US. Also, if banks don't allow you to wear ski masks, makes sense for them to ban niqabs as well.
Ski masks are protected under the laws of the states. Besides I see no correlation between ski masks and religious associated symbol, my friend you really make no sense.

We can discuss if it's a symbol of a religion or extremism? Niqab wasn't worn by Somali women pre war neither does it say in the Quran that we should wear it.
Right wearing niqab is religious pillar but religious symbol, learn the difference. Besides look at the bigger picture, individual freedom, if Somali women wear niqab on their own choices so? Be it.
"North Carolina has a statewide ban on anyone wearing face masks in public property (North Caroline General Statutes, Chapter 14: Criminal Law, Article 4A (Prohibited Secret Societies and Activities), section 14-12.14"
That's not a good excuse. Laws should not care about religion or any of its symbols. Secular state over a religious state.
But secular laws do actually care about religion. Hence freedom of religion. You're mixing the concept of separatingredients church and state, government level with individual freedom. LOL
Niqab is a security concern. Terrorist have worn it to escape being captured.
It's misgony sexist and abusive.
It hinders women from integrating and working
and most of all has nothing to do with Islam.
Still you're confusing the term religious symbol and religious obligation. LOL
Lmaoo terrorist have worn jeans and tea shirt. Does that mean we should ban jeans and tea shirt? What weak argument.
Except banning niqabs don't restrict your right to practice religion. Nowhere in Islam is the niqab required. I think you're finally catching up and understanding it now.
