Gov. Greg Abbott signs bill requiring Ten Commandments to be displayed in Texas classrooms
The Texas measure easily passed in the Republican-controlled state House and Senate in the legislative session that ended June 2.
Texas will require all public school classrooms to display the Ten Commandments under a new law that will make the state the nation's largest to attempt to impose such a mandate.
Gov. Greg Abbott announced Saturday that he signed the bill, which is expected to draw a legal challenge from critics who consider it an unconstitutional violation of the separation of church and state.
A similar law in Louisiana was blocked when a federal appeals court ruled Friday that it was unconstitutional. Arkansas also has a similar law that has been challenged in federal court.
hasn't this already been ruled unconstitutional in other places? why are these people so fucking stupid
It's part of the strategy. Keep people's heads spinning and see what sticks. Even if one or two things survive, it pushes everything towards their goal.
If at first you don't get the ruling you want, keep trying and appealing and bringing case after case until you get the ruling you want. It's the MAGAt way.
(Also profitable for lawyers...)
🤦♀️ 🙄 🤡 🖕 💩
Actually I believe the correct term is, "fascism"
Roy Moore tried it in Alabama
Passing Laws that have ALREADY been Deemed UNCONSTITUTIONAL is a GREAT use of Taxpayer Money!
Doing so should automatically trigger a review, where losing again automatically means you lose your seat and a special election is called.
That was the other supreme court. This supreme court is different.
You do not know how to properly use capital letters.
Lmao I always love when my tags are 100% right and then come back when I have totally forgotten about them. (P.S. please don’t hate me it’s all just a lighthearted joke)
They know SCROTUS is going to uphold it
And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Matthew 6:5-6
This verse is superceded by the Supply Side Jesus version
Be sure to rub your faith into the face of your enemies, especially if they are woke and liberal. Because seeing them panic makes God happy and therefore you happy. While you're at it, make sure everyone with dark colored skin suffers even more.
IKR? I cannot tell you how many xtians get butthurt when I tell them that "the" bible that they pretend to looooove so very much tells them to keep their religion in the closet. Literally.
The Satanic Temple has entered the chat...
Finally!!! Christian Texans will stop lying & killing people, right???
I can understand the appeal of the Ten Commandments to conservatives. Each commandment has its own prescribed punishment and for Texans, especially, I'm sure they all sound fantastic:
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Death.
- Feces on their faces.
Along with an X next to every Commandment the president has broken
What is the school gonna do with ten X's? Pretty sure this dude isn't honoring his father or mother.
Meanwhile someone at the ACLU:
Network Documents/
Templates/ Religious bullshit/ Church-state violations/ Texas/ _print_I'm calling on all Texas children everywhere to vandalize these commandments at every opportunity. Maybe you can't or shouldn't march during tense situations on the streets, but you can protest in the class room. Walkouts, sit ins, general malfeasance... Let's see what this younger generation has.
Get out your spray paint, kids.
sPray paint
looks at American media, seeing guns, violence, and killing glorified as a wonderful and direct means of solving problems
Hmm. Are we sure these are the correct Ten Commandments? There's not even anything in here about how seeing a woman's boob on television is a mortal sin.
Enjoy your alt right fascist police state. Welcome to your 1984. Enjoy
Just what you expect from Greg "little piss baby" abbott
Keep seeing teachers saying that kids in school can't read anymore so this seems unnecessary.

The qons, focusing on the most important things. I'm sure this will improve the lives of Texans.
