This is where I was driving with the argument, actually. I could care less about polygamy, which is no longer an issue, really. Create the law against face covering and it will eventually be gone. If that's the outcome the society desires, it will get it. Does the society truly desire this outcome and what is it willing to sacrifice to get there, is a totally different matter. The personal liberty argument is so weak in this case though...
