Good news.

All they have to do is claim freeman on the land status and they won't need a license, let alone a license with a picture on it.

Even better, if they get pulled over they can pay the fine by giving the cop a rock.

If muslims have to show their face when they get a DL/passport why wouldnt colony folks have to do the same.

I regretfully give the SC a +1 on this.

I saw a clip of the Supreme Court's session regarding this case. Apparently when all the lawyers got up ready to debate religious freedom, one of the justices said "What if they go into a gas station to get gas, they have security cameras there. How's that different?"

It was funny to see all the lawyers faces tweek for that half second as if to say "oh shingaurd!"

That's pretty good. Did they have an answer?

If security cameras are a problem, and going by the rationale behind this license thing I don't know how they wouldn't be, these people can't go anywhere.

Although it would be interesting to see someone argue a multanova ticket based on religious convictions.

"I don't consent to having my photo taken, so while this device of yoursshows me doing 75 in a playground zone, I can't accept it, because you violated my religious freedom in the very act of taking the picture".

Not too mention actually having camera's, and taking pictures.

Which people from these colonies do. The preachers involved in this bullcrap are hypocrites of the highest order and just another example of leaders of an organized religion using their power in ways it wasn't supposed to be used.
