The point is, a full veil, like a kilt, is a cultural and traditional thing, not a religious observation. But unlike a kilt a full veil does get in the way of conversation and communication, and good manners would imply removing it in a conversational situation. However good manners by definition have to be a matter of free choice.

But bringing bombs into this is a nonsense and a red herring. Your actual suicide bomber is far more likely to be wearing a fleece or a donkey jacket than any kind f traditional Islamic gear. I'd feel pretty safe actually, standing next to a lady in a full veil in a queue.

And that's nothing to do with "'Right On' PC stuff", it seesm like common sense to me.
