Sadly, if Miller takes it to the Feds, he will win. City, state, and county law cannot supercede federal law (and in an ideal world the converse would be true). What makes the pill even more bitter.. if he does take it to the feds, I have to agree with him. As much as I feel Miller should be forced to an eternity of Near-Death-Experience torture via the medium of ticks and leaches and other psychologically damaging parasites, I value my first amendment rights too much to risk presedent being set by that worthless turd and his ultimately meaningless case. Everyone has a right to display a religeous symbol on private property... Sorry if the crazy ass political fringe wings don't agree, but it is a right afforded by the Constitution. End of story. We had a case like this up in Massachusetts where some guy erected a 30 foot lit cross on his property... typical story, bleeding hearts took offense, big legal battle happened, and guess who prevailed?.. The Constitution of the USA. I don't agree with the situation.. I think the Catholic/christian dogma should suffer its own Inquisition and be eradicated... but I do agree the guy has a right to his beliefs, and a right to scream them at the top of his lungs for the world to hear whether they want to or not.
A much more satisfying and elegant solution to the problem at hand is to let him have his precious way.. and then unleash the full fury of Beaurocracy on him.. Since it would be a public building.. force every city code on him... Initiate Dept of health and fire code searches daily under the guise of concerned anonymous phone calls. With the neighbors being so upset, I'm sure that vandalism would run rampant, and the helpless feeling he would have without police cooperation may mconvey some of the feeling 100K+ kids felt through the years.
Hatred is a wonderful thing sometimes. I can really get juiced up about Straight and everything that happened to me... but I won't let it make me blind to the things that really matter. It's bad enough my personal freedoms are horribly trounced upon in this world we live in now. I refuse to let some piece-o-shit garbage have a chance at taking away any more of my rights.
