A loss for the religion of multiculturalism. A win for Western Civilization.

The French Senate has voted overwhelmingly for a bill banning the burka-style Islamic veil everywhere from post offices to streets, in a final step toward a making it law.

The Senate voted 246 to 1 Tuesday in favor of the bill, which has already passed in the lower chamber, the National Assembly.

Banning Muslims in public would be much, much better.

‘Twould result in far fewer “youth” transgressions.

Oops, forgot, it’s those pesky Methodists causing those riots.

Your more modest, but quite common islamofascist “cross dressers” will have nothing to wear now!

Shame on France! Don’t they know by Banning Burkas, they put Frenchmen across the world in danger.

Have they issued a World Wide Travel Alert, as Hillary did?

Now let’s hope they stand strong in the face of the upcoming riots as I’m sure there will be in Paris.

Some may say that this is a violation of freedom. Afterall, what business is it of the government to mandate what people wear.

However, there is a distinct difference.

First, many of these people are NOT natural born French citizens. They are Algierian immigrants who were granted citizenship by virtue of Algeria being a French colony.

Also, I think it is a sign that the French are recognizing that these Moslems truly are the enemy within. So they want to keep a better eye on them.

I think this burka ban is quite appropriate and is NOT a violation of any rights of freedom.

Good for France. Stick to your guns. Don’t give in to the thuggery of the Moslims with their fake rage and violence. The Law should be equal to all.

Let them keep their burkas as long as they go back to where all the women wear burkas.

Even the French have a point “ENOUGH!”

The terrorists need to learn that when Americans will soon have had enough!

They lost around 25% of their male population in WWI,
which led to the pacifist inclination. They were not always as they are today.
