I saw a woman the other day wearing a burka, the one that only allows the eyes to be uncovered. I was upset to see this in my country. Do you see that in Maine?

I live way far north in Maine, so I don't see that up here.

What type of Islam does this signify, if you know.

The Muslim/Islam religion is all I know. 

Isn't it illegal to walk around with the face obscured?

It should be.  Heck, a MAN with bad intentions could dress like a Muslim woman with face covered and do his dirty deed.

Somali women in Lewiston, Maine.

Do we see it in Maine? Uhhhhhh Yup! Why would it upset you to see it in this country if those ladies choose to wear it, they don't have to in America, it isn't like it's ANOTHER one of our LAWS involving our individual freedoms :) BUT it's kind of like their own business what they wear. At least you won't make a mistake and saying something "prejudicial" if their dressed in their own cultural clothes now will ya? Imagine if you said something to one of them cause you DIDN"T know who they were. Hey while I'm at it, do you have to get permission to put pics of Muslim women on the streets in these pages? Just curious.
