    But, I guess we're a beach nation, so maybe our views are skewed. I can understand barring swim-wear clad people from shops and resturants. But, not the street.

    But this does garner problems where one takes offence at marriages between different castes / ethnic backgrounds, what others eat, how others dress.
    Does it? What independent, free people marry/eat/wear (in no particular order) is almost always their business. The only times in which it is not their business is when their actions infringe on the rights of others surely?

    It does. The only task a government should have is the protection of it's citizins, allowing a security-risk isn't epic-, but basic faillure. The hilarious contradiction of women choosing to wear a burqua because they feel they need to aside, it's simply irresponsible to allow it. Remember, we didn't ask for Islam (musims are welcome that's an important destinction) in our midths, that is all on the left and their so-called tolerance, pc pissing contest is more like it but ok, fine. Doesn't work out so well.
