    Yes, because turning them away is such a good way to give them a chance to enjoy school life. You know what would have been good too? Let them in the school instead of putting them in the light like this and refusing entry for some of them.

    But, I suppose we have a different view of “enjoy a school life”; my vision happens in the school, yours happens in the school without some people.

      No one in France is allowed to wear religious iconography/clothing in public schools so why do you believe there should be an exemption for abayas?

        Small prayers before meals is effectively religious iconography. So is muslums call to prayer. But are they prosthilitizing?

          iconography ī″kə-nŏg′rə-fē noun

          1. Pictorial illustration of a subject.
          2. The collected representations illustrating a subject.
          3. A set of specified or traditional symbolic forms associated with the subject or theme of a stylized work of art.

          An action is not iconography, though public prayer is absolutely proselytizing but how you think that relates to clothing standards is not clear.

        Yeah that’s fucking evil and we should sanction France for it.
