Just one sample:
...In his latest letter to the city, [Freedom From Religion lawyer] Jayne said if the
city loses a lawsuit, it could be on the hook for a substantial amount
of money. He cited a 2014 case in which his organization sued a school
board in California for praying at meetings. The board had to pay FFRF
about $200,000 in attorney fees.
Jayne also said
FFRF won a lawsuit this summer in Pensacola, Florida, that resulted in
the removal of a cross from a public park.
"The
city argued that the cross did not advance religion, but the judge
explained that 'the law is the law,' and there is simply no secular
justification for displaying a sectarian religious symbol as a permanent
fixture ... on city-owned land," Jayne wrote. "The law on this issue is
exceedingly clear."...
Rather, it is "exceedingly clear" that the courts are wrong. We don't have to cite the Addled Justice Kennedy, or "tax-is-penalty-is-tax" Roberts.
We've said it before and we'll say it again: the courts have demolished the rule of law under which they demand respect and obedience. Instead, they got Trump and Arpaio--and they might get much more.
.....How else can you explain last week’s irrational decision handed down
ReplyDeleteby federal district court Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos?
An Obama appointee, Ramos is at least consistent.
This was the fifth time she has rejected a voter ID law for
Texas.......
