The same courts that have unilaterally granted foreign nationals a religious liberty right to immigrate are now preventing American Christians from praying.
Ten Commandments Judge Roy Moore, who is running against RINO Mitch McConnell stooge Luther Strange to fill the vacant Alabama Senate seat created when Jeff Sessions became attorney general, blasted the do-nothing Congress this week following the horrific 9th Circuit (Circus) ruling that made public prayer on a football field illegal, a clear violation of religious liberty and the First Amendment.
Several years ago, now fired former Bremerton High School (in Washington state) football coach Joe Kennedy would go to the 50-yard line after the game had ended, bow his knee and say a private prayer. Before long, players from both teams began to voluntarily pray with the coach, which of course, caused intolerant pagan progressive snowflakes to be overly butthurt and emotionally triggered and using their mob-like tactics, put pressure on the school to fire Kennedy, which they did.
The 9th Circus, the most leftist court in the land that gets 80 percent of its rulings overturn by the Supreme Court, according to the American Bar Association (for this, the leftist Bar laughably gives them a subsidized C- rating), ruled that this was somehow forcing students into a religion or something.
And former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore is blaming Congress, who has power over the courts, for allowing this judicial tyranny to fester:

Can’t say that he’s wrong......
Roy is the Man.
With more Roys in Congress maybe some day Christians will have the same religious liberties that muslims enjoy.
One can only pray.
[[ruled that this was somehow forcing students into a religion]]
Well don’t you know? Any student that refused to pray with the coach was fined $1000 and didn’t get their dip-loma - praying on a field with students who want to pray apparently amounts to coercion under penalty of law for refusal to do so-
The constitution was written in such a way as to prevent gov from establishing a religion that everyone must obey or face a penalty like it used to be in england- liberal activist judges legislated from the bench and added in that government could not even endorse a religion- arguing that by endorsing, or expressing ones religious beliefs, meant others would feel excluded and feel like they were being coerced into complying therefore it was unconstitutional to do so-
it was a nonsense legislative decision from the bench to create this claim- noone is being coerced under penalty of the law to join a religion they dont want ot if a coach or teacher prays with students that wish to pray=
I know and am related to some government school teachers. They have no problem with establishment of religion, as long is it’s their secular religion.
The coach should sue for violating his religious rights.

Good point. We have a national religion and it is enforced by penalty of law.
Secularism/Atheism
Atheists have religious beliefs just like everyone else.
A math analogy would be there is no zero. Only positive and negative beliefs.
Christian=positive
Athiest=negative
The problem is that our constitution went from protecting actual rights for actual acts to now protecting people’s delicate feelings on issues-
The constitution wasn’t created to protect people’s subjective delicate feelings- it was created to protect our rights-
The fact that some kids ‘might feel left out’ because they don’t want to join the coach in prayer has nothing to do with violating their actual rights- The left has turned the constitution into a document based almost exclusively on people’s touchy feely sensibilities
A black person not being allowed to drink out of a fountain is being discriminated against for something they can not control- the color of their skin- and that is clearly against the law to discriminate against that-
A person who CHOOSES not to participate in a prayer is not being discriminated against because of their genetic makeup- and infact isn’t being discriminated against at all- They are free to join or not join
But that isn’t good enough for the left- they have to make the bogus argument that those kid’s feelings are hurt and they feel excluded because they aren’t of he same religion or any religion for that matter- They scream discrimination because their delicate feelings get hurt- and they think the constitution was created to protect their delicate subjective feelings- and the liberal activist judges that created the bogus ‘endorsement’ rule also believe that-
Again- the constitution was created to protect us against a rogue government FORCING us to participate in an ‘official government religion’ or government act (which is why obamacare is a violation of the constitution as well- because it forces people, under penalty of the law- to participate in a government run health care system)
Bah- The liberal activist judges have bastardized the meaning and intent of the constitution- and gotten away with it-
Why was Chief Justice Moore dinged hard for trying to preserve the same ten commandments that grace the SCOTUS, while the Chief Justice of California states she will ignore federal immigration laws, and with apparent impunity?
Why is the FBI all Elliot Ness to investigate the guys at Charlottesville who had the permit and assembled peaceably, while the criminals who instigated fights, swinging clubs and throwing bricks, their own feces and urine are called “protestors”.
It’s past time that questions like these are addressed.
Praying that Moore is elected!

These politicians have already had their chance to protect constitutionally enumerated rights, especially religious expression, but have repeatedly shown that they couldnt care less about such protections imo. So its up to us patriots to replace as many of these career politicians as we can with Trump-supporting patriots in the 2018 elections.
Drain the swamp sewer! Drain the sewer!
Patriots need to qualify primary ballot candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitutions Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal governments powers.
Patriots also need to make sure that candidates are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal governments limited powers listed here.
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
Also, unlike incumbent members of Congress who wrongly remained silent while misguided state officials abridged the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens during the lawless Obama Administration, patriots need to make sure that candidates on the 2018 primary ballots commit to the following.
Candidates need to commit to making and enforcing 14th Amendment-related laws to prosecute misguided state officials who use state powers to abridge constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech for example, such actions prohibited by Section 1 of the 14th Amendment.
14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Again, drain the sewer! Drain the sewer!
The progressives will have debilitating conniption fits if Judge Roy gets elected.
**Judge Roy Moore Blasts Congress for Allowing Tyrannical Judges to Obliterate Religious Liberty**
BTTT!
Congress always abdicates its enormous Constitutional power to increase its unConstitutional power.
Tyrannical = Communist.
But you can take a knee and disrespect the flag...
Judge Moore just picked up Trip Pittman and Sarah Palin as supporters.
