It's your photo in a government database that you need to worry about. When totalitarian regimes send assassins to kill people, they use photographs to identify the targets to the kill teams. With drivers license photos in electronic databases, the US government has access to photos of nearly everyone in the US. Whoever has your photograph can order you to be killed, but there's nothing to worry about. It's just a driver's license. That's all it is.

If I recall correctly, a Muslim group attempted to sue a state a few years back that tried to require a woman to remove her bhurka for her driver's license shoot. Given how many suicide bombers dress up as women to 1. conceal their explosives, and 2. lessen the liklihood they will be searched by causing an outrage that an infidel would search a Muslim woman. Seems like a bad road to go down. Get rid of FOID cards, but keep the photos on drivers licenses.alcadehttp://alcade.net/me/noreply@blogger.com
