41. Because it's stupid and un-American.
Somebody wants to wear a cross, or Star of David, or Sikh turban, or Muslim headscarf, they should be able to do so, and it's NOT your or my or the government's fucking business to tell them they can't.

To ban such things is totaliarian. And just plain wrong. In America, anyway.

What else do you want to ban? Should French people not be allowed to wear berets? Scotsmen not kilts? Mexicans not guyabera shirts and peasant blouses? Canadians not rubber overshoes? (Sorry, Canadians. I was runniing out of examples.)

How about that evil lipstick? Eye makeup? Oh no, those two men are shaking hands! Better arrest them, they might be exchanging that secret Masonic signal or something else religious!
