But it did. By not allowing ANY displays to be posted...then it says that the atheist side "wins" because it got EXACTLY what was desired: no religous displays. Now THEY may not be able to use it as well, but that is irrelevant. They no longer have to protest those nativity scenes. Now they can just go to the park and hand out pamphlets against religion and heckle carrolers or plot the next move to get some other religous group disallowed from something they have done forever that is essentially harmless.
Yes. I understand. and I will just reitterate that it isn't fair to the Christian group. I think BOTH groups should be allowed to display their signs. It doesn't matter what the message it is. I think it is YET ANOTHER restriction on the first amendment that is NOT acceptable.
So let's get this straight. Nopublic government sposored display of a religious holiday means "war on Christians!"
I'm a Christian, not an atheist. Stop making a perfectly good religion look like a bunch of whiny babies.
Saying "nobody gets it" seems the most sensible thing to do. The First Amedment does not require the government to give you a platform from which to speak.
