How can they be properly identified if their faces are fully covered up. Does their ID card identify them as muslims and thus allowed to keep their faces covered? Isn't these silly requirements from the muslim religion, including having a place to wash their feet and interruptions from public prayers four times a day, getting out of hand?

I am no more bothered by them expressing their religious freedom than I am by anyone else doing the same thing. At least the laws of this country are not being created based on their religion. Sure can't say the same about Christianity.

If you go to a majority Muslim country, there would be things that you would want specifically for you that Muslims do not really care about.
Make way for others within the limits that you can. Simple solution: if a woman (who is not obligated to cover her face anyway) chose to cover her face, then get a woman banker to check her idea.
Is it too difficult to think of? or perhaps it is that you do not want to make way!

OK, lots of unrelated issues here... let me start at the top. Muslim women wearing a veil while going into a bank IN AMERICA (because they can do what they want in their country) or driving, etc...should be required to show their face...however, I think they should have the right to show it only to a WOMAN...like women being searched by female officers. As far as foot baths, these have been argued in places that ALREADY SUPPORT RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE..like at airports, that provide chapels, or universities, which have churches, etc...They should be held to the same respect that every other religion enjoys.

Where is this occurring? If they go to finger print or biometrics identification, I guess its OK. That is until someone pulls a AK47 from under their disguise and robs a bank.

Well, at least they keep it to themselves.
They don't actively force religion down our throats like how some people do.
I'd rather have people washing their feet than see the 10 Commandments posted everywhere.
