Authorities in several French towns have implemented bans on the Burkini, which covers the body and head, citing concerns about religious clothing in the wake of recent terrorist killings in the country.

The images of police confronting the woman in Nice on Tuesday show at least four police officers standing over a woman who was resting on the shore at the town’s Promenade des Anglais, the scene of last month’s Bastille Day lorry attack.[/quote]

As a product of Catholic schools decades ago, I like the photo of nuns frolicking on the beach.  A more tender time and photo versus the woman in Nice.  She must have been terrified and violated to remove her clothes (if that's what happened) in front of males and other onlookers.  They could've escorted her off the beach, fair or not, if necessary but making her strip in public is reprehensible.  Would that have been okay demanding a nun in full habit remove her clothing in public?[/quote]
