And freedom of speech, religion, and association are also important. There is a reason why our constitution specifically protects these right instead of using a catch all phrase about being nice to human beings.

Targeting religious worshippers with terrorism is especially bad because it inflames sectarian hatred and violence. Any civil war or conflict is made much worse if it has religious motivation on top of everything else.

All Catholic churches have been closed in Sri Lanka out of fear of more attacks, and legislation brought in to stop women from wearing face veils. https://globalnews.ca/news/5214362/s...-attack-fears/

The effects of Sri Lanka’s Easter suicide bombings reverberated across two faiths Sunday, with Catholics shut out of their churches for fear of new attacks, left with only a televised Mass, and Muslim women ordered to stop wearing veils in public.
