    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.
