Surely the point is that, in western society, the only people who cover their faces are Baddies. Watch any cowboy film (where they also wear black hats). The purpose of covering one's face is to disguise one's true identity.
We should have no problem with a woman covering the whole of her body except her face. Nuns have been doing it for centuries. It's the face covering itself that offends.
A law that forbids covering one's face in a public place would be logical. What's the use of CCTV, speed cameras that snap drivers etc if you allow people to wear masks?
