Our tax dollars at work.
On the upshot, the board members who were responsible for this stupid decision were all voted out. Here’s what TST responded when asked for comment:
Of course, money is often no object for under-qualified opportunistic public officials who are all too willing to waste public funds in the name of misguided crusades designed to leverage public fear and ignorance into votes. In Saucon Valley, however, four school board incumbents were voted out in favor of challengers who ran a campaign primarily focused on the enormous, pointless waste they incurred by violating TST’s civil liberties.
Definitely took up a lot of time, the money itself wasn’t paid by the school district though.
The district will pay the Satanists $1 in nominal damages and their insurance provider will pay the $200,000 in legal fees. The settlement agreement makes clear the payment is “not an admission of wrongdoing,” but rather a recognition of the fact that there was indeed a “constitutional injury resulting from the District’s decision to rescind approval for Plaintiff’s use of SVSD facilities.”
The insurance premiums are paid by taxes, and how is that not an admission of wrongdoing?
Saucon deez nuts
Love the work that TST is doing.
Evil is as evil does!
So true, those school board members are so evil trying to silence religion freedom.
ASS clubs do not promote Satan
Heh this whole thing is gold.
But are they now permitted to have the club there? The article didn’t make it clear.
In his 37-page ruling, U.S. District Court Judge John M. Gallagher said that the “District must permit the ASSC to meet at the location and on the dates upon which the parties contingently agreed… during the current school year.”
About 10 paragraphs from the end of the article. I hope there is a community for these kinds of takedowns. I enjoyed that article.
