Exactly, its not. So why would you force someone to avoid their choice of clothing that they want to wear on a public beach?
Freedom fries is right!

Ken's theory seems to be the most plausible.
If one otherwise believes in freedom and tolerance, then who the fuk cares what additional clothing layers I swim in at the beach?
I'll be turning off my news feeds going forward. So dumb.

France had officially gone beyond low (and is off my world map at this point). What they're doing with burkini ban is a gross violation of human rights and basic freedoms. They're a totalitarian, fascist (and misogynist) country now, no better than Saudi Arabia or Pakistan.
Another thing burkini ban will bring them is increase in ISIS recruitment. Hey, forcing a woman to undress on a beach (what happened yesterday), by several armed cops, is why there'll be more joining the extremists/more motivation for attacks. I assure you there'll be some previous moderates who'll now have very strong feelings against France.
Supporting vile Charlie Hebdo which is insulting entire world, burkini ban...France is down the road towards its end. It's clear there's no politicians who have a grip.

kattz, it's all about the bottom line:
The Australian woman credited with creating the burkini says bans on the full-bodied Islamic swimsuit in France have boosted sales.

I am tempted to start a thread about about all the vile stuff I saw in Europe. It was almost
daily that we saw Arab dudes bro-ing it up in bars while their sex slaves literally stood
outside on the street waiting for them.

More people will buy a burkini now, from Australian manufacturer, just to show support and protests freedom violations.
Whatever Muslim ganged-up men are doing in bars, is not related to the ban of clothing on beaches. In a free country, woman is free to stand outside (or inside) the bar, or walk away, and also is free to wear clothes on a beach.
The concern is gross human rights violations (such wouldn't be allowed in civilized country such as US or Canada, luckily, as their ass would get sued to the last dime, and I'd personally contribute money towards this)

Keeping sex slaves isn't a human rights violation?

Pictures of police forcing a woman who was quietly sleeping earlier, to undress on a beach:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/aug/24/french-police-make-woman-remove-burkini-on-nice-beach
It was a 3rd generation French citizen, by the way, if reports are correct.
These are not pictures of intake process into Auschwitz, or start of Babiy Yar massacre by Ukrainian nazis, or rape camp during Yugoslavia war, but this is what comes to mind: they also liked to make people to undress.

Notice, these totalitarian cowards (French mayors banning burkini and entire French society that supports them or stays silent), in their irrational hatred and thirst for oppression, are going only after women, trying to deprive them from the only chance they have to enjoy the beach and outing at the nature.
This is while most terrorist attacks had been carried out by males not wearing anything like Lawrence of Arabia did, in their daily life, and wearing secular clothes.
This is where France is going next:

France has a long history of treating non-natives like crap. You do not have to go to France to see it, a trip to Montreal wil give you a good idea of the mentality. The United States is far more inclusive, we draw our strength from our diversity. A vote for Trump will make us more like France. No thanks
