Problem is, when we let "Muslims be Muslim" we
aren't giving Muslim women a chance to even be people! I am of the opinion that in progressive democratic societies (such as France, Canada, etc.) we have a responsibility to stand up for all of our citizens, despite what "god" they may pray to.
These people want to be "Muslim" and degradate the rights of 50% of society? No problem, they can head back to Afghanistan or whatever 3rd world hell hole they crawled out of anytime they'd like.
Good on the French, hopefully the rest of the western world will follow and we can stop cowtowing to the discriminatory ways of (a large portion of) the Muslim people.
