Now, I don't know anything about the religious background of this, but could someone enlighten me? I just read this story:

http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2006/03/02/kirpan-scoc060302.html?ref=rss

... and think that it is taking religious freedom a little far. But maybe it's a small and harmless thing? I doubt it since it raised this level of controversy, but your thoughts?

That case was going on five years? Would he not have finished school by the time of the ruling?? I thought he was a bit beardy for a 12 year old.

I wish they would let me take my ceremonial Uzi to work...

My first thought was Cripes you can't take a dagger to school,
but there has not been even one instance where a kirpan has been used as a weapon in schools so.....I'm not sure what I think.
