Banish the Burqa
by James Jackson on September 07, 2010
**Disgusting. Imagine the US government telling their citizens what they can
and can not wear? Terrible state of affairs. In a truely free society,
people should be able to wear whatever they wish.
However, here in the US, businesses can and do tell you what you can
and cannot wear in their
establishments, here are examples
fancy restaurants, must wear coats and ties
Not public places, can exercise the right not to serve someone.
7/11 convenience stores - no hoodies
Never heard of this one! I always wear hoodies. But same as above.
bars , no gang or biker colors or patches
Same as above.
bars and restaurants - no tank tops, no bare feet
Same as above, but the footwear is a liability issue.-
anyway, there are two reasons for it not to be a national public
policy
free speech, and also states rights.
If there were any such prohibitions, and if it were
not for free speech (hypotheitically), it would not
be a national issue anyway, public space is
under the domain of local governments, not the Feds.
of course, except for federal offices and federal lands.
so, yes, in the US, businesses can regulate it on their property,
but the Federal government can't regulate it in open space.
Now, tell me this folks, in the legal sense, why isn't
public nudity a protected free speech?
