...Am I buying this? I don't know; would it be the secular French harassing/assaulting this woman? ...
If she's breaking the law she should be thrown in jail. The head coverings are either against the law, or they're not. Good for the French for enacting the law. Shame on them for any unwillingness to follow through. These people need to be marginalized.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
