48. I do not understand how freeing women from full veils is bad.

Please, tell me. I am serious here, do snark elsewhere but I am torn on this issue. I do not like the racism that is so prevalent in France against North Africans, and I also do not like the misogynism that is inherent in forcing women to cover themselves.

So I ask, how is this Islamaphobia, and how is banning full face veils bad?
