The first amendment? permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fiercekitten@lemm.ee 35 points 2 years ago It absolutely does, but the republicans don’t care. They hope the courts won’t strike it down, but even when the courts do strike it down, it’s still a win for republicans in office because their voters love the attempts at violating the human rights and civil rights of anyone who is different from them. Republican voters also remain ignorant of the fact that all these court battles cost money, their tax-payer money. permalink fedilink source parent
