Great stuff but all I'd add is that whilst its true (and always should be) that they can wear what they like and express themselves and their religion anyway they see fit, because it is not considered by most (muslims) an article of faith but rather of culture, it should be considered when attempting to integrate into a different culture.
ps: by integrate I do not mean give up former cultural identities but merely adapt them where necessary.

Apart from grammatical errors, I would dispute your assertion that everyone in this country is able to wear whatever they want. I prefer to walk the streets wearing nothing, but you could bet your last pound that I'd soon be arrested. There are also areas where it is not permissable to wear 'hoodies', and you have to remove crash helmets when entering a bank/building society.
As far as Muslim dress goes, I have no bone to pick with women wanting to wear veils, whether they be simple head scarves or full veils. What you need to understand, however, is that it does cause alienation, particularly when people are unable to 'read' body language and facial expressions. So much is given by facial expressions that it adds to the communication process. There is also the added problem with receiving the information from a person who's first language may not be English, being 'dumbed down' by having a physical barrier in place.
Having said all that, I believe that our predecessors fought for this country to remain free, and it should remain so.

I DO comprehend why they would not bypass on the debates on Fox information. Questions are chosen through those who run the community. that's glaring through the anchors and commentators that opinion performs an exceedingly reliable portion of their programming. And those very similar those who enable those reviews to make it into their "newscasts" are those that are going to get the questions which will be requested. that's uncomplicated to make a debate biased very incredibly. All it takes is searching someone a question they'd no longer sense tender in answering, or wording a question to latest an accusation incredibly than a real question. won't be able to say as I blame them. And to be completely straightforward, if I were a Republican, i'd not participate in a debate on their community, both. Why? because people will look at it as an entire farce - because they are going to get the "uncomplicated questions". they'd no longer, yet previous historic previous exhibits that their reviews look to run alongside the Republican party lines - all that it would want to do is tutor the Republicans as no longer being too severe, in the journey that they are going to bypass on a community that favors them contained in the first position. I propose extremely - enable's have someone run the SpongeBob SquarePants pilot episode on Nickelodeon to work out if that's going to likely be a useful tutor. . .

'Its' should be 'it's' where you are writing the shortened form of 'It is'. Better still, if this argument is in writing only, and you are not reading it out, then you should write out 'It is' in full.
This probably a word processing error but one of your sentences begins with a lower case 'i' instead of a capital.
'its a free country some people want to cover up as a visible symbol of their faith' is not a grammatical sentence. I think you meant to put in the word 'if' in there and forgot. A more grammatical way of writing it is
'It's a free country and if some people want to cover up as a visible symbol of their faith, if they think that their hair or their faces should be seen only by their husbands, then it's none of our business.' - running the two sentences together. Or 'It's a free country: some people want to cover up as a visible symbol of their faith.'
A good way of checking if your sentences make sense, or are grammatical, is to read them out loud. I count myself good at grammer, but still catch myself writing stuff which makes sense when I read it, but is not very clear when read out aloud.
Your argument is fine and well expressed and I think you have all the main ideas there.

Good arguement but what about the respect for other cultures like the christian one they have chosen to live in? Is there not also a health and safety issue, for example when driving? Anyone with an eye defect is required to register it with the DVLA, veils restrict normal and peripheral vision so what about that?

i think you are right about freedom to wear what you want, that means any religion, but i think there is a lot of people who would disagree. if you go on yahoo and type Muslim veil there is loads of pages about the argument. if you feel strongly about it,go get em.

I'd add the idea of a uniform like
what if a service man, who wears the cammo fatigues,
were told that he could not wear them outside, cause it makes people think of war?
well, to him, its a badge of honor.
or what if someone told you,
you could not wear the colors red or blue,
becuase of the crypts and bloods ( gangs, thats their colors)
if someone mentions covering your id,
mention
its not illegal to wear sunglasses, and that hides who you are,
and esp this time of year, I see people walking around with halloween masks, and that totally covers their face and hair.
they are alloud to do that aren't they?

This is persuasive enough and you argue your stance clearly, but the "its" should be it's.
