She can keep as much religious freedom as she wants.

Neither the constitution or the bill of rights mentions drivers licenses.

That said, they should find an alternate means of identifying people who don't want their photos listed.

My massachusetts license to carry has a photo and a fingerprint on it, for instance.

Of course, if they went to fingerprints, they could not longer use it as photo ID at other places, like banks and whatnot, and the banks would have every right to reject any attempt to use it.

My thoughts...

The US constitution DOES grant you the right to religious freedom...

It does NOT, however, grant you the right to a drivers license. (Ok, so, it does grant you the right to interstate travle, so... WALK YOUR VEILD ASS to work.

And, on one more note... The US Constitution DOES grant you the right to GUNS!!! Oh yeah baby, and lots of em'. Oh yeah... FIREPOWER...

IG, I use a stick, IRL... I use, what the natives called, a... THUNDER stick. WHOYAH!

IRL, I pwn joo =) HAHAHAHA

We hold these truths to be self evident... otherwise, we blow your damned head off.

Hey... Hey... Hey... Ted Kennedy's CAR has killed more people than any/all of my guns.

LOOK OUT!!! Pee-Wee's ARMED!

(Please excuse the previous nonsense, I cut back on my medication).

BANG BANG BANG!!! Oh yeah baby... guns guns guns... gimme gimme gimme.

Guns don't kill people...

I DO!

This has been in the news for months now.

The problem is that our court system and the abuse thereof have really gotten out of hand.

When a person can get money for spilling coffee on themselves (uh, I didn't know it was hot ... its coffee, moron!!!) we need to take a look at how the system works.

Actually, people quote that mcdonalds coffee case as the epitome of ridiculous torts.

If you look up the case in Lexis/Nexis you'd be really surprised. the machine they were using was a sealed-unit set to the maximum temperature.

They were giving people coffee hot enough to cause instant contact third degree burns.

And mcdonalds has KNOWN this. They ended up showing 700 something cases of people they knew had been burned by their coffee.

You can read more about it here:

Lag, you do indeed have the facts right ... but I still don't agree with it.

I also don't agree with people getting hurt by guns and sueing the gun manufacturer. Or falling off a ladder and sueing the ladder manufacturer.

Enough is enough already.
