312 - Freedom of Religion Under Attack in Washington State

Imagine your rights are under attack. You seek assistance from those who have sworn to protect you, only to be attacked again. You reach out to what you think is your last hope, only to be rebuffed. Now consider how that must feel, to be abandoned by those who have sworn to protect you.

Enter Seattle's Union Gospel Mission. Their freedom of religion is under attack, not by the laws of the State of Washington, but by a disgruntled job applicant. The Supreme Court of Washington placed their political preferences above their oath to support Constitution of the State of Washington. Then when the Missions seeks redress from the Supreme Court of the United States, they are rebuffed. Their only cold consolation, the statement by two justices that the court may have to deal with this infringement in the future. I've asked this before and I'll ask it again. Do you truly have Freedom of Religion when those who have sworn or affirmed to protect it fail to do so?
