Should Burkas be banned in public places in britain? (the ones that cover everything other than the eyes)?


Should Burkas be banned in public places in britain? (the ones that cover everything other than the eyes)?In my opinion, YES they should, here's why i think they should...
Burkas are a health hazard, because women who wear them are not getting the sunlight they need and so are not getting the Vitamin D they need (which is naturally produced by the action of sunlight on the skin) a lack of vitamin D can increase their risk of cancer, diabetes and bone diseases, it also has wider ranging health benefits.
smoking was a lifestyle choice just like wearing the burka is, so why ban smoking in ALL public places, and not the burka?
(i am not a smoker btw)
Also, the burka isnt a religious thing, as it does not mention the burker in the koran or anything like that, it simply says dress modestly, like covering arms and legs and stuff, it does not mean having to cover ones face! SO THEREFORE IT IS JUST A LIFESTYLE CHOICE so its not like it will be discriminating against a religion, it will be merely banning something hazardous to a persons health just like everything else hazardous to health gets banned.. so i dont see the problem?? and also they banned hoodies from shopping centres and stuff didnt they? THEY WHERE ALSO A LIFESTYLE CHOICE! all they did was hide someones identity, just like the burkas do! crimes are committed by people wearing burkas too!
If i walked into a bank wearing a ski mask, i would either be told to remove the mask or remove myself from the bank right? but someone wearing a burka (which if you think about it covers more of a face than a ski mask would) well it would be normal for them to hide their identity.
ALSO, back to the health point i made,
the smoking in public was banned because it was also damaging to other peoples health right? WELL..
its not just hazardous to the woman who chooses to wear the burka, but also to her children because the lack of vitamin D can cause Rickets in them, so is it fair that she is also risking the health of her children because she chooses to cover her face?? just like someone would think that someone who chooses to smoke or drink while pregnant is bad, isnt a woman who chooses to wear the burka while pregnant bad too?? after all, they ALL cause damage to their unborn children!
SO, WHATS YOUR OPINIONS??
They should be banned from shopping centres and stuff for identity reasons, the government stopped hoodies from being wore in shopping centres because of crimes and identity and all that, and crimes have been committed in people wearing the burka!! and the whole smoking harms other people too, well like i said the burkas harm the unborn children too isnt that another person? yes, do you people know what rickets is?? i have done my research, maybe some of you should too! =]

mini skirts and short shorts on fat chicks offend me. ban them!

There really isn't any legitimate reason why they should be banned (clothes also block vitamin d from the sun).

as far as health reasons no . any establishment especially a bank should be allowed to require you to remove them to bad if you don't like it its for safety

In my opinion the could wear it. Everyone has a different opinion. The burkas are kind of into fashion in different colours.

My opinion is this- it will be fair to ban them on the same day they ban low-rise jeans that show thongs or butt crack (that promotes yeast infections), and also ban halter tops and tube tops (skin cancer!)

No...what I really think is that as long as peoples' clothes are not obscene or offensive, they should be allowed to wear what they like. If the government can regulate clothing, what else will they want to make laws about?
