If they get special treatment to this extent for religious reasons we ALL lose because they set or further entrench a horrible precedent. We need to keep that wall between church and state strong. No special rights based on religion. I don't care if its Muslims (fgm), Jehova's Witnesses (blood transfusions and children), Sikhs (kirpan), or anybody else. Anywhere a muslima can wear a face veil, I should be allowed to wear a ski mask. Full stop.
