French Muslims Offer Little Opposition to Head Scarf Ban - Washington Post

"At a Tunisian bakery in a heavily Muslim neighborhood on the north side of Paris, a middle-aged woman with her head covered in an immaculate white head scarf shrugged off the news that President Jacques Chirac wants a new law banning Muslim head scarves from public schools. 'It's normal,' she said. 'School should be a place of equality.' The reaction was the same from the Algerian vendor at the local kebab shop."
