text: SFDl, no comparison whatsoever.  I do not have a problem with the hijab but draw the line with a burka.  When it comes to a toque or scarves, I would imagine one usually takes them off when entering a bank for instance seeing one gets too hot.  The burka is not a religious symbol but something stupid men as a rule force upon their females.  I  also object to demonstrators wearing mask, why do they do that?  Because they are cowards and know full well they very likely will act contrary to law.  The burka does not belong in a western society.
