That’s how most of the Zulu Tribe thinks.
An astute judge ruled the rights of a Michigan farmer were violated when a city barred him from a seasonal market because of his opposition to same-sex weddings at his Country Mill Farms orchard he often rented out for weddings.
East Lansing’s decision to exclude Steve Tennes and Country Mill Farms in 2017 “constituted a burden on plaintiffs’ beliefs.”
U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney brilliantly applied a U.S. Supreme Court precedent to the case, “Plaintiffs were forced to choose between either following their beliefs or be denied a “government benefit” for which they were otherwise qualified,” Maloney said.
The judge’s ruling represents a critical victory for religious freedom,
an embedded right that progressives have been attacking for years.
The ruling could set a precedent b/c it applied a U.S. Supreme Court precedent thusly:
“Plaintiffs were forced to choose between (a) following their beliefs and (b) a government benefit
for which they were otherwise qualified,” Judge Maloney said.
This decision highlights how liberty-minded Americans can fight back against the authoritarian left’s obsession with
punishing people for exercising.......or merely articulating their beliefs.......ala Trump.
