    Often times news upsells what’s happening in their title or with vague language in the article. I’ve become instinctively skeptical of outrageous headlines.

    I went and checked the text of the bill itself. Wow. It’s exactly what it says on the tin of the news article. Not even an attempt to vague it up in the bill’s language. There’s no wishy washy way to think it means anything but the biblical Ten Commandments, in straight forward language. The bill wants them posted in every classroom.

    This obviously violates the Louisiana state constitution and the U.S. Constitution.

      Were you unaware of the state of Louisiana or something? Idk why anyone would find this hard to believe unless they’re a little new to American politics

        They want it challenged in the 5th District for appeals so they can run it up to the stacked SCOTUS.

          The 5th circuit is already notoriously conservative too.

          Should be fun.

          The SCOTUS may be stacked but not even this court would agree with something so egregious. There needs to be at least a veil of plausible deniability for them to point to at least.
