Excuse me, but we are Christian and our womenfolk wear head coverings,

But for Christians it's a choice --- a Christian woman isn't going to beat up if she doesn't wear a hat or scarf, Christian men aren't going to think she's asking to be raped if she doesn't have it on --- it's totally up to her.

Look what happens to women in Saudi or Iran if they don't have their faced covered. That's why it should be banned like it is in Turkey.

Banning the head covering constitutes a violaton of the free exercise clause of the First Amendment.
