This has come up in a few threads now. I hate to be pedantic...well, okay, I'm a lawyer, so I don't hate to be pedantic. But at the risk of being pedantic, the First Amendment refers to your right to be protected from government infringement on speech.
Yeah, that was in the back of my mind as I wrote it, but cannot a direct appeal to the protection of the First amendment can be made by the example I gave- not the Don Lemon example, but the example given by the ICE raid on a congregation and their intimidating tactics in the parking lot? Many of those folks, intimidated by ICE, will be thinking about their safety when they contemplate returning for worship. Could not a case be made for this being an example of the government favoring one religious expression over another?
