This is clearly an attack on the right to personal and religious expression. It's no different from a law that would ban the wearing of a yarmulke, a tilaka or a crucifix.

Yeah, it's a cinch to hide an RPG or an AK under a veil!

Has zero to do with hiding weapons underneath. Sorry but your points are not even close to being valid imo.

+1. Not only is it an attack on personal/religious expression, imposing this ban would likely be counterproductive. It would probably help radicalize some who would otherwise not have become radicalized. Also, it would end up effectively banning religiously observant Muslim women from going outdoors. The French need to get a grip on their immigration policy. They have 5 million Muslims in their country. Did they really think all these folks were going to start promenading down the Champs Elysee wearing the latest in Parisian fashion.
