And the difficulty is in determining if the wearer IS wearing the burka of their own free will. The oppression of women in parts of the muslim community is absolutely horrific. If you think it is a free country for everyone that is here, you are mistaken.
The burka is only a symbol of that oppression. Banning a symbol since we can't prosecute the domestic violence and intimidation doesn't seem very useful, but there isn't much else we can do.
