Is France correct to ban the Burkini?

watching the police make your women in the papers take of her over garment on the beach was nothing short of embarrassing, how about getting out there and do some real f**king police work!

Load of bollix. Women are capable of deciding for themselves what they want to wear.

I am not sure I get the French logic on this one. Nude beaches are ok, but a silly looking full length swimsuit isn't? I've seen people wearing things on beaches that caused the waves to reverse course, but that was usually too much body wearing too little cloth.

You think their logic was based on how it looks? 

And tell me, how else do they know what it is without looking at it? 

Smell?
Chemical composition??

Go on please, this should be interesting. No pictures or visual descriptions allowed.

Great, your usual circular garbage  I think I'll leave you to it...

You usual burkular argument I see.

Are they? Or do they just wear the same as their peers?

This is the classic dilemma, do you apply the benefits of French values to people who wish to overthrow those values?

Who says Muslim women want to overthrow French values? All they are doing is wearing dodgy swimwear.

They are refusing to integrate into French society, taking their cue from other places instead. A form of cultural invasion.

In an attempt to be secular, they've lost the plot.

With freedom of expression and speech,who gives a f**k if someone wants to wear a burka burkini, crucifix or whatever?
If someone insists on you wearing something then that's a different story

So when I wore my Offaly jersey in Arizona I was culturally invading?

If you refused to appear in public, other than in your Offaly jersey, then that would be unreasonable behaviour,  in my view.

What about an Armagh top? In my defence, sometimes I wore the white away one .

Hence the Biffo attire!

Spent a year in Indonesia 14 years ago.   Many different women told me that they chose to wear a veil, etc... because it meant that men couldn't just ogle them in conversation, and would have to actually listen to them without judging them by their looks.
