I found the dissenting judgement much more cogent and compelling than the majority opinion. The majority seemed to be taking a 'spectre at the feast' line. No evidence that a woman wearing a headscarf actually posed a threat to anybody was produced, merely the argument that someone might feel threatened. It seems to me that the 'someone might feel threatened' line of reasoning could be used against the exercise of just about any freedom.
