    Brian Tingley, a licensed family counselor, challenged the constitutionality of the Washington State law in federal court, saying it violated his rights to free speech and the free exercise of religion.

    “I have the speech rights to shout down and scold anyone, and the religious right to trample on the beliefs of others.”

    I also love that his name is Tingley.
