A.
I don't give a dam where they live, it doesn't change the facts, if they don't do what there told they'll be beaten.

Their not all adults, I'm not sure if your aware of this (since you don't seem to bright) but muslim's are born as baby's as well just like we were. They don't just fall out of the sky, full grown adults.
I think maybe you should read the Qur’an you clearly have no understanding of this "religion" and how it treats women or you would not say that they choose to do anything, they don't. They simply do what there told.
Please link me to all of the honour killings that have happened in FRANCE due to women not wearing their burqas.

You can claim all you want that Muslim women aren't being forced to wear burqa's, but the honor killings tell a different story.
No doubt those girls wanted to burn to death in a fire rather than go outside exposing themselves to men in a sinful fashion.
"Here in Turkey the figures for 2007 show that over 200 women were killed here in the name of family or community honor, and that is frankly unacceptable in a modern Europe," Austin said. "And it's just the tip of the iceberg: In the United Kingdom; in Germany; in Belgium; in France; in Norway, there is evidence of honor crimes and honor killings."
The report says one of the key steps in combating violence against women is legislation. Jose Mendes Bota is the chair of Portugal's parliamentary committee on violence against women.

Just as soon as you provide links of what is going on behind closed doors in Muslim homes where women must wear burqas that proves these women want to were this abomination.
By the way, who died and put you in charge? Who says we can't talk about things in other countries, besides France, related to the topic?

In summary, for public safety reasons, I am in support of having people show their faces in public.
You're entitled to your opinion, but I think that it's disgraceful. If someone doesn't want to show their face, then they shouldn't have to!
All that your opinion shows is that you live with a culture of fear. You're expecting that everyone will be guilty and you want to be able to trace everyone by CCTV cameras over every inch of public land.
It's not a free world any longer. With opinions like your's, it will never be a free world.
The state of New York can prevent demonstrators from wearing masks during public protests, the Second Circuit has ruled. The decision overturned a district judge's finding that the state's antimask statute was unconstitutional.

But I did provide links to back up my claims, now where is the evidence that anything you have said has anything to do with reality.

Yes they can go to the French authorities and their husband would be charged, then bailed and an hour later he'll be back home belting the # out of his wife again. And to make it worse she'll be disowned by her family for going outside their legal system.
If you knew anything about islam you would know that to it's followers THE Qur’an IS THE LAW no matter what country they live in.
Honestly are you 10 years old or just plane stupid?
"The issue of the burqa is not a religious issue, it is a question of freedom and of women's dignity," Sarkozy said.
"The burqa is not a religious sign, it is a sign of the subjugation, of the submission of women. I want to say solemnly that it will not be welcome on our territory."

I have a solution for girls who don't want to be forced to cover-up in muslim nations - don't go there. Spend your tourist dollars in a more hospitable country. There's more than one way to rebel against BS laws and losing tourists wouldn't be something desirable for their economies.
