The new law bans wearing a burqa, which covers a person's entire face, or the niqab, which only shows the eyes, in public. The law also prohibits accessories that hide the face such as balaclavas, masks and false beards.


This law doesn't unfairly discriminate. It applies to anyone wearing shit that hides their face.

So this isn't a burqa ban, just a ban on things that can make you unidentifiable.

The law was popularly known as a burqa ban, and to pretend that it's anything else is very dishonest.

to pretend it's not anything other than to prevent people from wearing them and committing crimes while hiding their faces is dishonest imo

Well, what crime was the woman in the OP planning to commit?
Besides, Danish right-wing politicians such as Kenneth Kristensen Berth have been intent on banning these particular types of clothing for years. To suddenly pretend that they haven't is dishonest.
