    Another step towards criminalizing Muslims. They are a convenient scapegoat for the fascists and libs to channel the anger and hate away from themselves and towards marginalized groups.

        Secularism is not the motivation behind this. If it was, this law would have already been on the books for centuries. But Islamophobia is a great way to get the racist vote right now.

        I you believe this has nothing to do with Muslims, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

          Man, I’m Belgian and France is one of the most racist countries I know.

          These laws are always targeted at the same people but always wrapped in a layer of good intentions and nationalism.

          All these laws are doing is making the divide between people bigger.
