I have no problem with anyone practising there religion but I do have a problem when they flout the laws of there country, if this law applies to all other schools that fall into the same category then why are they allowed to contravine it? From what I have read in the links provided most of the students are not American born but of Imigrant families. Suerley these people have come to the US to escape some form of persecution and to live in a country that has laws that will protect them and there families? Why then do they and those who run the school act as though the laws of the state do not apply to them?
