Supreme Court Sides With Christian Student in College Free Speech Case

With Democrats in control of Congress and Joe Biden in the White House, Republicans are battling multiple fronts to uphold the Constitution.

And conservatives just secured a massive victory at the U.S. Supreme Court regarding free speech.

The Supreme Court ruled in an 8-1 decision that a Georgia college’s speech code policy violated the First Amendment and that a student who was harmed by the policy can seek damages.

Justice Clarence Thomas issued the opinion of the court, writing that nominal damages claims are enough to establish standing to sue for a constitutional violation.

Chief Justice John Roberts was the only dissenter.

Very strange when 3 liberals say ok and Robert’s says no. I’ll be interested in knowing why.

A Chief Justice that is the one man out on an 8 - 1 split. Outrageous.

It's almost as if Roberts is trying to scream, “Hey, I'm compromised”.

Roberts is either totally evil, or the rats have something totally evil on him, which probably means the same thing.

It figures. John Roberts is severely compromised. Somewhere in the Democrat Party's safe is video of Roberts polishing a knob.

Anyone got a summary of Robert’s dissent? The article makes a small blurb about it that sounds utterly stupid but I’d like to see his actual reasoning.

Roberts is either bought, threatened or is a willful POS

SCOTUS is down to two members, Thomas and Alito. By most measures, I suppose Clarance “But John, that’s the end of democracy!” Thomas is now the Chief Justice. A unanimous opinion is 2-0 now.

The other 7 committed treason back in December.

Ditto. Perhaps there is a reason he put some things on the record that will help in the future.

And Scalia was killed.
On a democrat donor’s ranch.
By a hinting (er, hunting) accident.
Never fully investigated by the local (democrat party) officials.
