I'm as far left as the next woman but that shit has to end. I wanted to have my spouse pull over and rip that dang thing off her face. She was with her daughter who was wearing a hijab that was barely old enough for puberty. For me, it's a security risk to have someone cover up like that. And! I think women have been oppressed long enough.
Uncover yourself!
I know the Swiss are very tolerant, because there are a lot of expat/foreigners in Basel where I live and most of the muslim women here are very quiet and keep to themselves. But that woman with her whole face covered pissed me off. And it was near 90 degrees today. How safe is it for her to be covered in black in the heat? Just stop it. If you want to live like that, go east to a muslim countries that find that behavior acceptable.
Sorry to anyone that finds this shocking from me, but this happened about 4 hrs ago and I can't get over it.
