If they come to France to be French men/women thats fine, but when they come without assimilating into the culture its asking for conflict and strife.
I personally think the ban is stupid, not because of religious freedom, but because it won't work. I fully sympathize with the goal, which is keeping French culture French.

Assimilation and religious freedoms need to compromise. If they want to keep French culture French, by all means close your borders, but don't ban people's differences. Assimiliation would probably occur more naturally if left to its own people.
There is something to be said about assimilation, but this is an extreme and a poor attempt at it.
