Supreme Court Sides With Bremerton’s Praying Coach

SCOTUS ruled 6-3 this morning (Kennedy vs. Bremerton School District), that a former high school football coach in Bremerton, who prayed with his players and other students on the field, could legally do so under his First Amendment rights to free speech and free exercise of religion.

Every Republican-appointed justice sided with Kennedy, every Democratic-appointed justice dissented.

I wonder what the ruling would have been, had the coach not been Christian?

Public school too. This is disgusting. If you're not a white, evangelical male in this country, and you haven't been paying attention, you might want to start.

@Ynotisay Even if you are, you should be paying close attention. It's a slippery slope from disrupting school activities, to conduct prayers, to Gilead.
