tahgut, he's asking for a set aside time for the practicing of religion. That would be an endorsement of religion (tho obviously not a specific faith), IMO. Also, I don't think tax money should be spent on religious observances. Having a set aside time in school like Les mentioned would be just that, once again, IMO.

As for the picture. A Florida Driver's License is a form of identification, specifically a photographic one. That picture is not valid from the standpoint of identification. Say she gets pulled over. How on earth does the officer really know the female carrying the license is the same one in the picture?

It ain't about driving. It's about an I.D. The drivers license is the most legit I.D. in use today. How can you identify someone who has their face covered up? In FL, it's a felony to have a fake drivers license. How can someone tell if the person in the picture is the person in the picture or not?

Sorry them the rules, if she don't like it, she can lump it. It's crazy to try and defend this in the name of "religion". She can stay covered up, she just doesn't get a drivers license.

Naw, I think I'll pull for the home team on Nov 30th.

After all, I'll be there barring some unforeseen incident (like being violently ill 2 years ago

)

If she would totally go by the 'religion', where veil is to be used, she wouldn't be allowed to drive a car in first place

(theres like n^100 different versions of Islam)

Law FIRST, then religion, this is the real freedom.

BTW,

Judge by your self if there is really freedom of religion there, by reading every post in this thread.

Some very nice Racist/Bigot readings.

Maybe in US there's freedom of religion, with the exception of Muslims.
