To the editor:

This is in response to Dennis Fitzgerald鈥檚 stupid leftist letter re: Hijab鈥檚 banned in Denmark.

He does not know the difference between a hijab and a niqab.

A niqab is a face veil as well as a burka, whereas a hijab (a scarf) is not.

Face veils are what are banned in Denmark. Nuns never ever wore face veils.

And no one ever complained about European women wearing babushkas (head scarves) either.

But the need to hide one鈥檚 face is ridiculous unless you are robbing a bank.
