U.S. District Judge John deGravelles ruled Louisiana's recently passed Ten Commandments legislation was unconstitutional and cannot be enforced. Louisiana cannot enforce the law known as House Bill 71 which was set to take place on January 1. The legislation, if enforced would have had public K-12 schools and colleges post the Ten Commandments in every classroom. The issue now moves to the U.S. Court of Appeals and will end up in the U.S. Supreme Court for a final decision.
Republican governor Jeff Landry said he could not wait to be sued when the legislature passed the measure and his wish was granted. Donald Trump supported the legislation. Governor Landry is a Trump ditto head and like he and his GOP CULT use religion to divide the country as they use it to discriminate against those whose lifestyle they oppose. It is part of their extreme agenda.
Common sense tells us the ten commandments is used as a phony issue by the GOP. If one violates the Commandments it will not be school children, it will be elected officials and common sense supports that. Trump is a good example: Adultry, fraud, which is the same as stealing. And then there are others that the people of Louisiana are aware of. There are many religions in the United States and the separation of church and state displayed the wisdom of our forefathers who realized that. This writer has always believed that political and religious dogma are the greatest threat to progress and humankind.
