    It is oppression. Im sorry, but you arent going to convince me that women in muslim countries arent oppressed. You arent going to tell me things like genital mutilation , honor killings, forced marriages, the denial of education to women, etc etc isnt oppression. Sure the veil is minor compared to those types of things, but its still a symbol of women's status in the muslim world. Just dismissing it as a cultural difference is ludicrous.

    Now, I will say I dont agree with this law, because I dont think civilized nations should prohibit people from wearing what they want. But, I can at least understand where its coming from. There are some cultural differences, where one side is better than the other side. And the way women are treated is most certainly better in western society than in most Islamic societies.

    Agreed.
