I know that America is a melting pot of different cultures. My heritage has its' own culture and tradition. The thing is, in those countries you must cover your hair even if you are not Muslim, to respect their culture. The US has laws and unfortunately federal institutions are now having to implement regulations that may offend someone. Where do you draw the line between respect and protecting our safety?
And before I get jumped on, I am not saying that a Muslim woman wearing a head wrap will rob a bank... but how easy would it be for a woman (or man I guess) to rob a bank with the full head wrap (eyes only exposed), putting people in danger, and never be found because you can't exactly identify a suspect by looking only at their eyes?
