And now it goes to SCOTUS and they allow it.
United States of (christian) Taliban
Remember the 1st amendment? That was a good one while it lasted.
I’ll miss it

Setting precedent for other districts
Maybe. The one thing that saves rational results right now is that the Supreme Court can’t possibly take every single case. They have to pick carefully for cases that will fuck things up the most.
Rare W for separation of church and state in Republican territory. I hope it lasts.
Maybe someone should tell Republicans that religion is all made up, not real. Kinda like magic and trickle-down economics.
We keep trying, but they keep pulling both of those out like it’s settled fact.
But if they can’t get the ten commandments in school, how then will trickle-down indoctrination work? 🤔
Something like this maybe?
And I bet they add some lines to the pledge of allegiance too. They’ll squeeze Trump’s name in there somehow. After all, these people think he’s the second coming.
Lovely. Absolutely 🤬ing lovely.
Didn’t you hear? They’re rebranding to horse and sparrow indoctrination instead!

It’s unfortunate to see all the poor dead sparrows underneath the hooves of the grotesquely obese horses. Don’t Tread On Me has taken on a new meaning.
What’s the point of putting it up there if they don’t follow it?
Enforcing religiousity has little to do with morals and more to do with control. Look at any religious state and you will find not a moral state, but one that uses religion to control other people and enforce their power.
For NOW…
I wish there was a word for what religion, specifically in the southern section of the US, is doing to children. Like a word that describes how they are… Let’s just say grooming them.
Thank Buddah!
This was totally (in my humble opinion) service for someone who “donated” to the new governor before he got elected. It was one of the first things he did it felt like. LA is plagued with a cliqued up, corrupt political system basically since its inception. I’m just glad that this shit got shot down further up the line. These damn Christian nationalists are a huge problem for any forward momentum that gets traction in legislation and only drag us backwards it feels like.

The constitution lays out certain things the government can’t say or do. One of those things is bring together church and state
A simple reading would be no.
“Congress shall make no law… abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press…”
In the strictest sense, it only applies to acts of Congress. It doesn’t even apply to states. However, the 14th Amendment setup a framework for incorporating the federal constitution down to the states, including this. Freedom of speech has also been interpreted more broadly in general.
