Call, fax, email whatever you have to do! Get your Elected Federal Officials to get this passed.

I doubt that in today's court system, this law would ever be judged "Constitutional", due to political correctness and the activist-packed Courts of today.

They'll have to go back to making money selling communist pamphlets at Democrat rallies.

Not much the courts can do if this passes. This is only the House at this point however. I will let everyone know again when it goes before the Senate.

I would hope that everyone would evaluate this law based upon a religion other than their own before they choose to support it. Everyone thinks it is such a great idea, because they assume that Christians will be protected rather than persecuted. What if it is a Muslim in charge of your local government or school?

I think this law is a bad idea for Christians and everyone else.

The language specifically targets "veterans memorials, the Boy Scouts, or the public display of the Ten Commandments of other symbols of America’s history with a religious aspect." The law would not apply in a general way to any symbol without relevance to American history. How would it affect a Muslim?

This law does not effect Expression Clause cases, only Establishment Clause cases. In specific it protects the Boy Scouts, Public Displays of a religious nature (regardless of religion), war memorials, etc.

I understand your reasoning, but I wouldn't look to the ACLU to stand in Islam's way if it came to that.
