For their next act, the atheists will "serve warning" against 0bama for acknowledging Ramadan, in his capacity as a sorry excuse for CiC in three...two...one...((((crickets chirping))))

If he’s an officer of the court 24X7X365, whether in uniform or not, then are we supposed to believe that he has forfeited his rights to free speech and to the free practice of his religion?

Someone give the big smackdown to FFR satanic worshippers. They need it.

said the sheriff is breaking the law by failing to separate church and state.

Goofy. The people know what he is: a human being. And according to the first amendment he is as protected as any of us to say what he wants within the standard limitations. Wearing what he “wears to work” is irrelevant.

Sounds like Freedom From Religion should be hit with a racketeering suit.

Any group can name themselves but it becomes interesting when their intent demonstrates an opposite concept. The Freedom of Religion Foundation group would better be called “Freedom FROM Religion” and like the Gaystapo “Human Rights Campaign” they have coopted a name that is at odds with their intent.

As a resident of this area I’d normally be confident that Sheriff Judd is safe, BUT given the flavor of some of the Federal Judges, it could be a stinkpot. It seems like from every side the morality that guided this country for the past centuries and Civilizations for millennia is being dismantled by well funded zealots more interested in their ideology.

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!

If he was off the clock when he spoke in church? Than he did nothing wrong. Maybe wearing the uniform at church was a mistake, but hardly a threat to anyone else’s religious liberty.

[Olog-hai]

Why is Bay Noose Nine calling the so-called “Freedom From Religion Foundation” a “religious rights” group when all they do is attack religious rights . . . ? (Must be that Time-Warner thing.)

[Cicero]

The answer to the title of his sermon is, yes, the world WOULD be better if everyone behaved like a Christian.

After all, his job is to enforce the law. And it’s always better to persuade people not to break the law than it is to arrest them for breaking it.

In fact, he was doing his job, even if he wasn’t claiming to be doing so.

"A handful of complaints"

Meaning one person, who may or may not have even been there, who then posts to Facebook where a "handful" of locals start spreading it around.

Within hours, liberal athiests from across the country grab for the fainting couch.

They recently did this to a school in my area because one teacher had one quote from George Washington on the history classroom wall in which he referenced God.

[TBP]

So a public official cannot publicly express faith? That policy would be a clear violation of the First Amendment.

And BTW, the sheriff is right.

Freedom from Religion Foundation is an anti-religious freedom group
