Now
you're begging the question. Try again?

My case is that there is no "compelling government interest", they are just being too lazy, inconsiderate and paranoid to set up a non-photo system for the handful of people who need it.

The reality is that there
is no "non-photo" system in use. For this one woman, we should recreate licenses for all people in the state? And meanwhile, what do they have to identify her with? And how does the liquor store on the corner quickly verify the ID presented by Joe Shmoe under your "non-photo" method, w/o having to buy equipment or take more time to validate a person's age? Sorry, but you're really off the wall here.

Remember: For the last 17 years of her life (assuming she got her licence at 17 and is now 35) she has been or would have been allowed to drive with a licence with no photo.

Uh, where'd you hear that? Do all the other states she's driven in not require a photo id license? Some how I kinda doubt that.

She is a Muslim. A pretty devout out at that it seems.

Ah yes, the keyword: seems. Is she actually what she says she is? Will you not allow us to think she might, God forbid, be lying?

And let me get this straight: For the purposes of the shop keeper, a signature is not adequate for identifying that the person is who they say they are on the driving licence, but a signature is adequate for identifying who they say they are on their credit card?

That's right, the standards between what cops want and what bankers want are different. Amazing, innit?

Actually, I think you'll find that she didn't. If you want to speak of laziness, speak to the person who allowed that picture to be used in the first place. As soon as it was brought to Florida's attention that she'd done this, they fixed their error by requiring her to redo the picture.
You sound like you're her lawyer or something.
