Republican (fascist/socialist) governor Jeffrey M. Landry, Esq., of the confederate state of louisiana, signs House Bill 71, requiring the display of the biblical Ten Commandments in the classrooms of all government-run public schools.
NOTES:
- Parents who object to what they see as a blurring between the Separation of Church and State should be free to withdraw their children—and financial support—and redirect them into free-market public schools of their choice.
- As an attorney (Officer of the Court) Landry was ineligible to serve in two branches of government at the same time, according to Article I, Section 6 [Clause 2].
