I am strongly opposed to hijabs and niqabs, but I don't believe the government has the right to ban pieces of clothing

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

How does the choice of wearing traditional attire like a Niqāb at civic ceremonies affect your perception of cultural identity in public spaces?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

In what ways do you think personal freedom should be balanced with cultural norms during formal public events?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Have you ever felt the need to adjust your personal attire for a public ceremony, and how would you relate that to the debate on the Niqāb?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

How do you think the presence of a Niqāb at a civic ceremony could influence the atmosphere of the event?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

If a close friend chose to wear a Niqāb to a civic ceremony, what would be your concerns or thoughts, and why?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

From your perspective, what impact might a ban on face veils have on the inclusivity of public ceremonies?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Imagine two different ceremonies, one where all attire is uniform and another with diverse dress codes; which do you feel would better represent a democratic society and why?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

How would you argue the point of dress code freedom at civic ceremonies to someone who feels uncomfortable with face veils like the Niqāb?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

Can you think of a situation where wearing a Niqāb might be more than a personal choice, and how would this affect your stance on its allowance at civic ceremonies?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…12mos12MO

What do you believe is more important during civic ceremonies, expressing individual identity or adhering to a collective formality, and why?

Yes, but their face must be visible and must go through security checks

 @8RBQDDP from Vermont  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, depending on the event, and as long as it is not deemed a threat to anyone

 @6HDD83R from California  answered…4yrs4Y

No, Islamic clothing (e.g. Hijabs, burqas, niqabs, Chadors, Taqiyah, and other Islamic clothing) (for men and women) should be permanently and irrevocably banned in predominantly and potentially predominantly Republican states, U.S. territories, counties and county-equivalents, Washington D.C., cities, towns, villages, Indian reservations, Census Designated Areas (CDP's) and other unincorporated areas and unincorporated communities, etc

 @8RSTXFT from Arizona  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, anyone should be able to wear whatever they want, as long as it doesn't conflict with a general uniform.

 @92YHQCV from California  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, we should respect all cultural traditions, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member, just in case.

 @8QK7JMV from North Carolina  answered…4yrs4Y

 @892HFDV from Minnesota  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes but they should be have their identity verified by a staff member (male or female) and should be required to provide a valid gov't issued photo ID (such as a driver's license) and display it throughout the duration of the ceremony.

 @8CCT6FP from Wisconsin  answered…4yrs4Y

No, America is a secular country and no one should be allowed to wear religious clothing outside of their place of worship or private residence.

 @8FPLGKD from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by an appropriate staff member in civic ceremonies or meetings of large attendance. This should be the case for all face coverings regardless of culture, sex, or religion.

 @8JGSKD5 from Oklahoma  answered…4yrs4Y

yes, but there should be no resistance to revealing their identity, and their identity should be revealed

 @8J9LC6P from Oregon  answered…4yrs4Y

No, Islam is a hateful and divisive religion. All religion should be kept out of government, and people need to keep their sexist and homophobic fairy tales in their homes.

 @8JN8BGC from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8LY86H4 from Florida  answered…4yrs4Y

No because we should still be able to identify the person with the Niqab we cant.

 @8NY47RM from North Carolina  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but must be removed for driver license and for confirming identification at traffic stops. Female officer if they request.

 @8P9GPTN from New York  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8PRBVSN from GU  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, I believe the Niqab comes from misogynistic ideas but clothing items shouldn't be controlled

 @8QKJ7R9 from Texas  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, we must preserve religious freedom. With the current fear of Muslim attacks, virtually no attacker would wear clothes that easily identify them as Muslim anyway.

 @8S2LJ24 from California  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but anyone under the age of 18 should not be allowed to wear it, and anyone wearing it must verify their identity

 @8S2LJ24 from California  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but anyone under the age of 18 should not be allowed to wear it, and anyone wearing it must verify their identity, also, apply this to all religious clothing, not just the Niqab

 @8S2LJ24 from California  answered…3yrs3Y

 @8SGXQ5C from Colorado  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes if a religion says women should wear face coverings in public then it is discrimination to not allow them to

 @8TXPQL5 from California  answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member of the same religion so they feel comfortable.
