French Riviera City Bans Specialty Swimsuit For Muslim Women


The French Riviera city of Cannes has banned beachgoers from wearing a swimsuit designed for Muslim women, called a burkini, citing the recent Islamist violence.

Going into effect late last month, a city ordinance bans the burkini as well as any swimwear that "ostentatiously displays religious affiliation, when France ... [is] the target of terrorist attacks."

Geez, the French should learn to respect individuals' sense of modesty. I wouldn't mind wearing a nice colorful swim suit like that given my age and desire to reduce my skin cancer risk.
