Discrimination or Not?: Banning Burka Wearing in France and other issues! Are they legal?

Hello, everyone!

Long time, no see you here! 

But now, there are some controversial issues happening in the world I'd like to have your view on.

It's not only French Burka Ban recently portrayed on the media, but also what to say about Crucifixes and Bibles removed or not from Schools and Courtrooms in Europe and Peru, respectively ?

The following videos and/or reading material will give you ideas to form your opinion for or against these legal issues. Try to answer these questions:

1) Are you for or against these measures? Why?
2) If you are against, what should be done to solve it?
3) If you are in favor, what aspects exactly can support your opinion, other than the video or articles you saw or read?

If you know of any other example of prejudice/ discrimination, please share with us, so that we can better argue and counterargue here.

I look forward to your eager participation on the blog in the next weeks!! Be my guest!

Ta-ta (British for bye-bye) for now.
