Religious Freedom Under Attack by State of OK?

[SoonerATC]

There's no right to drive a car.

ICAO is not a "UN" organization. Nor does it have anything to do with the Oklahoma drivers license process.

Yes it is, actually. It is right on the front page.

Whether it has anything to do with the OK driver's license process, I don't know. I wouldn't rule out that ICAO accesses such databases for known or suspected terrorists or for aiding Interpol, etc.

In the September, 2002, issue of Popular Science Magazine, a new I.D. card was revealed that is to be imposed upon all U.S. citizens. The card has the letters USID in the upper left with the words “United States Identification” under them. Then, the words Department of Homeland Security appear, under which is the social security number and, under that, the date of birth. Then, there is the name of the individual with basic statistics including city of residence. To the far right on the card is a laser-engraved photo with a RFID or radio frequency identification device in the forehead of the individual.

The background on the card is the truncated pyramid with the all-seeing eye. There is also a memory strip containing 20 megabytes of data including information about your fingerprints, iris scans, face scans, heartbeat characteristics, and DNA sequences....

HackerF15e is right, driving is privilege.

Per Bell v Burson, a motor vehicle license is somewhere between a privilege and a right.

That's just in motor vehicles. You have a right to drive some other vehicles.

Be careful, Okie4570. How would you reconcile "For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment." with Rosa Parks? Was she resisting what God appointed, or was she on the side of right?

Yes sir that is a slippery slope, how does one know for sure what God has appointed?

DRIVERS LICENSE VS RIGHT TO TRAVEL

For years professionals within the criminal justice system have acted on the belief that traveling by motor vehicle was a privilege that was given to a citizen only after approval by their state government in the form of a permit or license to drive. In other words, the individual must be granted the privilege before his use of the state highways was considered legal. Legislators, police officers, and court officials are becoming aware that there are court decisions that disprove the belief that driving is a privilege and therefore requires government approval in the form of a license. Presented here are some of these cases:

CASE #1: "The use of the highway for the purpose of travel and transportation is not a mere privilege, but a common fundamental right of which the public and individuals cannot rightfully be deprived." Chicago Motor Coach v. Chicago, 169 NE 221.

CASE #2: "The right of the citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, either by carriage or by automobile, is not a mere privilege which a city may prohibit or permit at will, but a common law right which he has under the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Thompson v. Smith, 154 SE 579.

It could not be stated more directly or conclusively that citizens of the states have a common law right to travel, without approval or restriction (license), and that this right is protected under the U.S Constitution.

CASE #3: "The right to travel is a part of the liberty of which the citizen cannot be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment." Kent v. Dulles, 357 US 116, 125.

CASE #4: "The right to travel is a well-established common right that does not owe its existence to the federal government. It is recognized by the courts as a natural right." Schactman v. Dulles 96 App DC 287, 225 F2d 938, at 941.

It's OK everyone. We should all just relax and comply with edicts from local, state, federal and international agencies. They know what's best for us and we shouldn't question their authority or motives.

Thorazine drip anyone???

I'm not an expert but I got the impression that the whole reason for the new high rez photos is because the low rez photos don't contain enough biometric information data points to be useful.


Also, someone may want to google some information on what's called a MORIS device.
Apparently they are being deployed with LEO agencies now.

....and what does a PopSci article from 10 years ago about a proposal for a national ID card have to do with anything?
