SRSLY... I feel like all that is happening in our 'free' country is like a bad science fiction movie right now. One we cannot escape.
(hmmm, random reminder to self to go read A Handmaiden's Tale)

jrfrenchRepresentative Ronald Paul(R-TX) has introduced H.R. 4379 aka the "We the People Act". It seeks to ensure that:
The Supreme Court of the United States and each
Federal court--
(1) shall not adjudicate--
(A) any claim involving the laws, regula-
tions, or policies of any State or unit of local
government relating to the free exercise or es-
tablishment of religion;
(B) any claim based upon the right of pri-
vacy, including any such claim related to any
issue of sexual practices, orientation, or reproduction; or
(C) any claim based upon equal protection
of the laws to the extent such claim is based
In other words, it seeks to effectively dismantle the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. Presumably, this is being put forward on the impetus of groups such as the American Family Association with the intent of clearing the way for bigoted and theocratic laws at the State and Federal Level.
Write to your Senators and Representatives and urge them to oppose H.R. 4379, and any version thereof which may reach the Senate floor.
