Ariana Iacono has a nose ring. The school she attends forbids nose rings in its dress code. Ariana refuses to remove the ring, and she has been suspended. So she's contacted the ACLU. She's just exercising her religious freedom, they say. You see, she's a member of the Church of Body Modification.
I can pretty well predict how this will turn out. She'll be allowed to go to school with the nose ring so she can practice her religion. But the little boy in Plano still won't be allowed to practice his religion by handing out candy canes at Christmas. I just wonder what they'll do when they get a student who's a member of the Church of the Birthday Suit.
