A federal court ruled the city of Oakland had a right to bar two employees from posting a flier promoting traditional family values on an office bulletin board.

Personally, I don't think anyone should posting political messages on the company bulletin board. I would never let anyone do that - of course, our company bulletin board is in China but that is besides the point.

Hatred of Christians by the ruling elite is now just 3 degrees of separation from the old Roman standard of feeding them to the lions.

So, by banning the flier against "normal family values", the city is admitting that the homosexual lifestyle is not "normal" like the gay agenda so badly wants people to believe.

Employees Regina Rederford and Robin Christy posted the flier in response to an e-mail to city employees announcing formation of a gay and lesbian employee association.

An email from whom? Other city employees? If so, how come they get to do that but Rederford and Christy are prohibited from posting their flier? Sounds like there might (also) be an equal protection problem here.

Phladelphia, and Oakland/ Massachussetts ,and California,
What was begun as a Christian nation now sees it's mere politicians and it's educators attempting to lead this nation away from God. The Minority leader Nancy Pelosi
of California defends Michael Newdow and the removal of
"One Nation under God from our Pledge. What began in the
relm of the American Communists and their ACLU has corrupted our Courts, and our Schools, and our Government
to a point where these no longer reflect what was established.A House Divided shall Not stand.

I don't see any persecution of Christians.

These two "Christians" set out to deliberately retaliate against the homosexual's announcement of a group.

Federal courts in Northern California are bursting with commie/socialist/anti-religion judges. The only surprise that won't come from this is Regina Rederford and Robin Christy getting assistance from the ACLU to appeal this anal-retentive's decision.

Clean up the courts President Bush.

the court is assuming the flier is discriminatory against homosexuals, but the flier didn't say that homosexuals were banned from the discussion group of "natural family values"

pc america is no place to live... as an american i have a birthright to be able to think the way i want, say what i want and associate with whom i want to... yes to discriminate if i wish to... it is human nature, it is evolutionary, it is an american ideal... if you don't like it, go somewhere else.

"an e-mail to city employees announcing formation of a gay and lesbian employee association."

Heterophobic hate speech?

Its still verboten to advocate Red State values - even if you never criticize homosexuals. So much for liberal tolerance and protection of free speech. We don't need no steenken' tolerance towards homophobic bigots and in any case a public employer can decide what speech can be expressed on public property.

This is why we can not continue to look the other way - for too long Christians, social conservatives and republicans have not said anything fearing to be called a name. The game is up we do not have to hide anymore JJ, PUSH, NOW, DNC, AFL-CIO, LaMecha, LaRaza, GLBT - these are all racist and anti-christian/jewish organizations. Wake up - they HATE us and we need to battle them for the good of our country and our children. There are many lurkers/Freepers on here who will try to put you down for upholding family values - almost all of them are liberals sent from the DU.

Thanks for the post.

This just in, of possible relevance: Christian proselytizing of gays isn't 'hate speech' in Philadelphia.

On Free Republic: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1345317/posts.

The original article: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=42372.

It's not directly on point, and it's not binding precedent since it's in another district. Nevertheless I'll bet the attorneys on this case find a way to work it in.
