City of Houston subpoenas Pastors sermons

I could not find any information on this other than at blog type sites.

Does anyone know anymore.

This apparently involves the "gender neutral" bathroom bill that passed here in Houston and the recall petition that was not certified. Which was then followed by a lawsuit. This apparently is in response to that lawsuit.

Anyone see the "Lorde" Southpark tv show last week.

Gender neutral bathroom for the so-called gender confused.

Buddy if you claim to be gender confused and walk in on any of female loved ones, you won't be confused for long!

I would tell them to ..... Well, I'd tell them sermons are available Sunday mornings. Bring a pen and paper for note taking.

HOUSTON – Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys have filed a motion in a Texas court to stop an attempt by the city of Houston to subpoena sermons and other communications belonging to several area pastors in a lawsuit in which the pastors are not even involved.

City officials are upset over a voter lawsuit filed after the city council rejected valid petitions to repeal a law that allows members of the opposite sex into each other’s restrooms. ADF attorneys say the city is illegitimately demanding that the pastors, who are not party to the lawsuit, turn over their constitutionally protected sermons and other communications simply so the city can see if the pastors have ever opposed or criticized the city.

It still exists but its domestic enemies are in charge now. They have been since the Supreme Court ruled against Miller in 1939. If there was any doubt that should have been erased by the ruling against Filburn in 1942.

:???: In Houston it is illegal to oppose or criticize the city? I must be missing some critical part here.

Mayor is up against term limits. This potty parity came up all of a sudden after her reelection.

If the mayor is a lesbian and the city is driven by the homosexual agenda it is indeed illegal to criticize.

If you want to start going back in time, I recall Mark Levin mentioning some slavery related SC decisions that were pre-Civil War. Even accused them of being part of the cause of the Civil War.

Its a tactic, but a stupid one. It will get poured out by a court quickly. However the government attorney who did it or the official who authorized the law firm to this should be fired.
