I agree wholeheartedly with Mr. Harris' comments. Allowing face-covering is an open invitation to fraud and possibly other illegal activities. As immigrants, my family adjusted to life in a foreign country and those who did not like it returned to the country of their birth. It is for immigrants to "accommodate" themselves to the customs of the country they chose rather for the country to "accommodate" them. I have no problem with them walking around in public covered from head to toe so long as they follow the existing rules. We should not be changing those rules, and our society, to accommodate anyone.
