I asked on another thread this.
Is this the law that they’re pooping their pampers over?

Religious freedom restoration act. Provides that a state or local government action may not substantially burden a person’s right to the exercise of religion unless it is demonstrated that applying the burden to the person’s exercise of religion is: (1) essential to further a compelling governmental interest; and (2) the least restrictive means of furthering the compelling governmental interest. Provides that a person whose exercise of religion has been substantially burdened, or is likely to be substantially burdened, by a state or local government action may assert the burden as a claim or defense in a judicial proceeding, regardless of whether the state or a political subdivision of the state is a party to the judicial proceeding. Allows a person who asserts a burden as a claim or defense to obtain appropriate relief, including: (1) injunctive relief; (2) declaratory relief; (3) compensatory damages; and (4) recovery of court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees.

"Wonder if the CT taxpeasants know that?"

The Republican candidate for Gov., although very weak, won every town in the state, but lost big in our three cities - Bridgeport, New Haven, Hartford.
Common denominator is very large welfare populations - THAT'S why the Demoncrats get away with this, not because the worker-class are idiots (we are not).

Dan Malloy is just a little twerp running a very little state and doing it poorly in the process.Which is quite normal for democrats.

I should know, because I live here.If it were up to me I would move to the southern tier but the Mrs. Is not in the mood to move.

Some of us Freepers are from Connecticut. The guy is an embarrassment to the state but we're outnumbered here.
