i disagree on this one. this is a PUBLIC health issue and not a freedom of religion issue. she is in contact with many people therefore the government has an obligation to protect the people. she must choose between her religion and her job.

AND, I might add that this is a tactic employed by minor officials, i.e. Town Halls, all over America - wherein the Town decrees something and then local businesses must post a sign on behalf of whatever it may be - always using a back door to grab more authority - just like the latest Internet dust up - which they dropped like a hot potato once the Internet went crazy about it and they were flooded with e-mails and the actual threat of protests and riots!
This of course is on a much less grand scale, but the Govt. is always trying to make business owners or any kind of front they can hide behind to be their "bag man". We now have good old Chicago 20's style gangster politics -IT IS VERY, VERY, SCARRY! Thank goodness you recognize it for what it is and jump on it before it gets to draw its first breath!

Has the First Amendment Become an Exercise in Futility?
Click Here to See the Video Blog
This morning I found myself nodding in agreement as I read John Whitehead's column in the Lynchburg News & Advance headlined, "Free speech: an exercise in futility?"
Today it seems that ordinary citizens from both sides of the political spectrum find themselves with something in common -- disconnection from elected and government-appointed officials. Whether it's "Occupy" or "Tea Party" participants, political disenfranchsement seems to be common ground. As for me, a conservative Democrat (believe it or not), I also feel left out of the process. It seems that "big money" controls the steering wheel. I've noticed that man fellow citizens from a variety of political perspectives sadly agree with the notion that, "Our opinions don't matter ... other than during an occasional vote in a media-hyped election process. Elected leaders and candidates seem "out of touch" with many voters, or way too focused on stereotypical "hot buttons" which they ignor soon after elections. So what to do?
I don't know. I hope you do. If so, let me know. I have run an advertising/PR firm for the last 28 years. If your organization offers solutions that make common sense and serve the common good, I would like to help. Meanwhile, I will look over your web site with hope in my heart.

Rutherford Institute Demands that Census Bureau Cease Requiring Americans to Respond to Lengthy, Highly Invasive American Community Surveys

Who gave the Census people authority to take a GPS reading of every front door of every household in America? I refused to let them on my property but later cought one of the census workers by my front door. How many people know this was being done?
I felt the need to reply about the mail yesterday about the Commerce dept asking people if they had refrigerators.
do you know why that's in the survey?
Most targeted individuals will tell you the perps are using the refrigerator coilsan antenna linked up to their satellite surveillance and targeting system. That's why they want to know whether people have a refrigerator or not.
You're right -- it has nothing to do with the census.

John, while I agree with just about everything you say, I've been working on both face and iris recognition for a long time, and there is nothing on the market that can scan 50 people a minute and get the results. I know that one company has made this claim over and over, but the technology just isn't there. That's not to say it won't be soon, but for now, we're safe.
Some of it can be a good thing in certain circumstances like tracking a
hiker for their own safety in case of getting lost or caught in an
avalanche. Others is just going to far. Big Brother is watching every
second.

Virginia Supreme Court Refuses to Grant Petition for Rehearing in Case Involving Honor Student Expelled for Shooting Plastic ‘Spitwads’
Click Here to Read the Press Release
The public schools in America use no common sense at all! The action they took in this case is absolutely absurd, and points out another reason the public schools are failing. To think that some of the things kids use to do in school 50-60 years ago are now classified as "criminal" is ridiculous. No wonder more and more parents are choosing to send their children to private schools. I hope Andrew's parents will be able to enroll him in a private school -- or will either decide to homeschool him. His education should not be effective by the decision of the school board!
