Quote:This Bible-thumping school board just learned the cost of willfully defying the US Constitution
Quote:Members of a California school board who heavily used prayer during public meetings are being ordered to pay more than $200,000 in lawyers fees, the San Bernardino Sun reports.
On February 18, U.S. District Judge Jesus Bernal ordered the Chino Valley Unified School Board to stop a years-long practice of “reciting prayers, Bible readings and proselytizing at board meetings,” the Sun reports.
On Thursday, the judge ordered board president Andrew Cruz, along with board members James Na and Sylvio Orzco to pay out $202,971.70 to the Freedom From Religion Foundation in association with their November 2014 lawsuit.
I fucking love it.

Read this on the Friendly Atheist yesterday.
Awesome.
More of this, please, judges.

And please, all the judges have the same first name, or at least biblical names. That's hilarious!

Dumbasses tried to pull that in California?? Did they really think there would be no repercussions? Sure, there are quite a few religious conservatives around, but no one, at least in the southern part of the state, likes their time wasted or their rights infringed upon. We spend too much time in traffic for that shit.

Beautiful! Now if we can just find a way to keep this story under wraps so other school boards who try to ram Jesus down everyone's throats can meet the same fate.

Exactly. They can get away with it in the bible belt, the literal Hell, but not in Cali.

I fucking love it.
Taxpayers (athiests included) getting slapped with a $200,000 bill... hilarious.
Btw, this case is currently under appeal so your ejacu..er celebration may be a bit premature.

Legal bills still accruing, district might be looking at a double or nothing scenario.
It's fun gambling with other peoples money ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

You see, shitforbrains, those "taxpayers" are the same dickheads who elected those assholes so they are getting what they deserve. Elections have consequences.
As far as your "appeal" goes...there is no law which permits public schools cramming religion down the throats of students. This is throwing good money after bad.
Fuck them. Fuck jesus. Fuck you.
