Federal Court Strikes Down Satanic Temple Prayer
Not Today Satan!
In a win for everything that is decent a federal judge has recently dismissed a lawsuit filed by The Satanic Temple against the City of Boston. According to the Boston Herald, the Judge ruled that the city council did not discriminate against the group by refusing to grant its request to deliver an invocation at a recent weekly meeting.In a 31-page ruling, Angel Kelley, a U.S. District Court Judge wrote that speakers delivering opening prayers “are invited at the discretion of the individual city councilors.”
If you were here in 2014-15, you might remember when we had to deal with the Satanists--Preston Smith and Chaz Stevens.
One of them said--
"City Manager Michael Bornstein, a fellow who imbues the “quintessential essence of a lying, governmental hack” and his boss, Mayor McShe’sACunt, were temporarily successful (emphasis temporarily) with this duplicity — their lies, ones I’ve caught ’em dead to right, are of a chilling, discriminatory nature clearly designed to silence my Satanic invocation".Back then, The satanists were threatening the City of Lake Worth with a civil rights suit. Later on, the city finally allowed Preston to give his satanic invocation as they are paranoid about lawsuits and the entire dais walked out, minus one.
With this new federal ruling, city commissions don't have to be intimidated and can refuse their requests. It's no longer a First Amendment right.
