He also pleads to the public to not elect her to not let this happen to stop her disastrous plans. Penn defends her standDefending her cause, Penn stated that France is the place where enlightenment and universalism spread throughout the world. But now it is en route to becoming the first country to ban any sort of religious activities in the public domain, which will become easier for the police and the administration to not run behind people who are in a head scarf or any other kind of religious symbol.Nothing against Islam, says PenPen tells the media that she has nothing against the religion of Islam but she wants to put a fight against what is causing terrorism and putting the lives of so many at risk, saying she has not forgotten the terrorist attacks that have occurred and we have to remember that all the troublemakers are Islamists. There is a need for a law against Islamist ideology, the religion is a part of the country, coexisting with all. She goes on further that the Islamist ideology lets down the principles of France as a republic, undermining equality, secularism as well as democracy. It takes freedom of choice from women as well.
