You "don't understand"? Well, let me tell you why it's not safe to allow people to cover their faces with black rags: BECAUSE THEY CAN COMMIT CRIMES AND GET AWAY WITH IT! Would a white man be allowed to wear an executioners' hood in public? You can bet they wouldn't get halfway down the street before getting arrested, or worse. These women, or anybody else, should not be allowed to do it, either. Unfortunately, the U.S. will probably continue to allow it for a long time.

Many Moslem societies have banned the Burka over the centuries - it's NOT part of their "religion".

We love "diversity", but we are not about to let these people destroy our homeland with their insane beliefs.
