Belgian committee votes for full Islamic veil ban

I think the only hope for any country is to vigorously maintain the separation between church and state. Personally, I think the US is far too accommodating of special interest groups. The very difficult thing about freedom of speech is determining protected speech. If someone were to make a clear case that sabawi's speech was seditious or inciting hate or riot then it would not be protected.

For whatever reason, the US government isn't going after these people at all. I mean consider the McCarthy hearings. People were destroyed for far less.
