At least there's some sane judges in the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals.

It’s telling that they targeted Abercrombie & Fitch (though I have no love for them nor their stupid advertising).

It’s also indicative of the petty, vindictive, but at the same time dangerous and tyrannical, nature of this administration. It’s the worst combination imaginable-a bunch of people that petty and vindictive, but with the power to be dangerous in enforcing their pettiness, and the will to overstep the legal boundaries because no one in this country will stop them.

There is no RELIGIOUS requirement to wear that thing.

When I was a child, it was required that we females wear something on the head WHEN WE ATTENDED OUR CATHOLIC CHURCH.

One baby step.

We shall see what happens next for other cases pending.

The Catholic Church has requirements for dress for clergy, religious (nuns) and the laity (modesty, femininity/gentlemanly).

None of which are prohibited by nor constraining to the Constitution, or, the law of the land, the term so popular this week among progressives.

And the Constitution does not interfere with what we do during Mass, and vice versa.

Yes, this administration files lawsuits supposedly protecting civil rights for minorities and labor suits protecting unions but never to protect non minorities or business owners.

So when a judge in one district rules for A&F and a judge in another district rules for the muslim, does it have to go to a higher court next?

Maybe she should apply for a job here:

The most frightening part of this ruling:

"reckless indifference or in the face of a perceived risk that its actions violated federal law"

So questioning the applicability of a statute or Federal regulations with legal counsel means you're not showing sufficient deference to the almighty State.

That judge doesn't need to be impeached-- she needs to be dragged from the bench and tarred and feathered.

No.

Unless of course the woman and her proxy wants to fight.

And I’m betting they do.

Agreed, and she’s just one of 0bummer’s nominated judges.

These type people are also the type whom Holder has appointed in the DOJ, over 100 of them.

Why didn’t she wear her do-rag in her employment interview(s)?

Yep, she didn’t want the job, it was a setup for a lawsuit.

I can’t understand Obama targeting A&F. Were they polled, I’d bet the % of Obama voters @ A&F is higher than in the black community.

I have taught members of my family to keep a long distance between them and people in hijab, whether they are in a bank or Walmart.

One never knows when they go Boooooooom!

They don’t *have* to go to a higher court.

As I (a non-lawyer) understand it, the Appellate court’s decision would be binding on its district courts and ‘persuasive’ in others. Conflict between 2 Circuits is usually grounds for SCOTUS to take a case.

Abercrombie & Fitch? Judging from their catalogs, wearing clothes in general does not comport with their policies.
