Country over religon

At a certain point people need to decide what's more important to them - where they live (and the society it presents) or their "religion". Case in point. Stupid bint in Florida is taking the state to court over the fact that she has to show her face on her drivers license. Well see it's simple;

IF you want to drive, then you need a license. No one says you have to drive, you can take alternate transportation. One might just point out that if the twat lived in a country that would probably let her have a license wearing a veil they probably wouldn't let her drive in the first place. Saudi Arabia bitch - try driving there.

IF your religion, on the other hand, is so all-fucking important that you have to waste the state's time and money then maybe you have to consider that you really ARE living in the wrong place. It really doesn't get any more obvious - you can't have the freedoms and safety offered by living in the US ~and simultaneously expect everyone to accommodate pre-historic moral values. Either you can drive, not be worry about being murdered for 'honor crimes', have a right to vote, own property, divorce your husband and keep your children, get an education -or- you can go live someplace where everyone else is wearing a veil in their pictures.

Of course the courts slapped her with a 'fuck-no you can't have a drivers license with a veil on' stick. Further, they pointed out that it didn't matter WHAT your freeking religion was - the rules applied to everyone. And if that wasn't enough, they also pointed out that nothing in her "religion" said she couldn't have pictures taken. I suppose if it was so fucking important to her to get a license she could make sure only to show it to other women (good damn luck there).

This isn't a first amendment rights issue - it's a "you're too stupid to be here" issue. Driving is a privilidge not a right... so get a grip woman and stop wasting time. You have to show your face for national and local security issues, that's life... take it or leave it.

Well said. I've heard of this case and I just shake my head. How the hell else are we supposed to know who's operating the vehicle? A driver's license is not just the 'ok' to drive the vehicle but it's a form of identification. Don't want your picture taken? Then don't try to drive, fly or do anything else in this country that requires you to prove who the hell you are.

What good would the picture do if all it showed was a pair of brown eyes. Do you know how many women in this country would fit that image? If the picture doesn't identify you, it's not really proof that it's you.

If I was a cop and asked for a license and she handed me a pciture of a women with a veil, I'd laugh and say try again.

This is still going on? I remember my driver's ed teacher saying driving is a previledge, NOT a right.

However, solution to problem that does not violate her religious freedoms - have a woman take the fucking picture. Then she can request a female officer before showing her face. There, done, issue solved. No violation of her religion.

You want descriptions? Get a dictionary. Better go waste time reading the news or play some games on Yahoo or MSN or some shit like that.
