Are you saying that it should be against the law to wear a veil and anyone who disagrees with that supports the oppression of women?
You should be able to answer this question without having to ask. Simply find a post in which I say we should ban this in the US. I'll continue to, correctly, point out that the intention of the burqa is to subjugate women but admitting that, much like a battered woman who decides to say with her abuser, it's a personal choice.

I sure will, as soon as I make that argument.

You're adorable. I'm sure this special brand of smarminess has earned your clients extra years of incarceration.
Quote:I am not disputing that some women are forced to wear a hijab just like some Christian women are forbidden from wearing pants. I just don't think we should make make laws forbidding women from wearing a veil or a dress.
Cool, keep arguing against a position I never took.
