The French Are the Best Protesters in the World

Niqabs and hot pants: French women protest the burqa ban



Two women decided to take their anger to the streets this week in protest of France's burqa ban. They approached the protest in perfect French fashion: reinterpreting the way a niqab is traditionally worn. The anonymous women paired the face veil with hot pants and heels.

1. How about covering *only* the head and face.. and leaving the rest nekkid
-or with heels and Fredericks of Hollywood skimpiness. It'd make quite a statement.

2. Great protest! Irritates the National Front and the fundamentalists among the Muslims
at the same time.
