27. the law specificallys covers the FACE not the hair or the head scarf
you can't mask your face in public, that's what it's about

if someone wants to wear a hat or a scarf or what have you advertising their ties to one ridiculous religion or another, go for it, altho i for one think it's about as tacky as those who have to wear t-shirts or bumper stickers advertising their views...if you have a bumper sticker morality or a bumper sticker religion, fine, wear your bumper sticker and i'll get out of your way

but when you go into public wearing a mask, then i have to be concerned for my safety, because there is just no damn good and decent reason to wear a mask in public

if your religion states that a woman's face is obscene, your religion needs to be shut down in the interest of human decency, women are human beings too (and yes, some women are self hating but their self hate shouldn't be allowed to be paraded in public where it puts others at risk)
