No Freedom of Religion for Mennonites

We read:

"Members of the religious Mennonite community in Mount Airy, near Moberly, are packing their bags and moving to Arkansas due to a new Missouri law that forces them to break their religious beliefs.

The new law requires a picture for every drivers license, without exception. In the past, Mennonites and other groups whose religious beliefs forbid picture taking were still allowed a license. On July 1, 2005, however, that changed.
