How did freedom become endangered in a town named after Sam Houston?...Thanks to Republican flight, Houston has a very liberal government. So liberal that out-and-proud Mayor Annise Parker and the city council passed a gay rights ordinance that allows men with gender issues to use women’s restrooms. Well, a lot of churches – and women -- have a problem with that. So they gathered 50,000 signatures to repeal it. The Mayor, without obvious power or cause, invalidated the petition, so the group sued. In response, the city subpoenaed four pastors, demanding copies of their sermons, speeches and communications with church members, to see if they had promoted the petition. That ignited a national outcry, and the Mayor and City Attorney backed off like scalded cats. Funny how all politicians who get caught follow the same script: It was a misunderstanding! The attorneys worded it poorly! Okay, here are two simple words that even the Houston city attorneys should understand: “First Amendment.” If you agree please sign my petition in support of the Houston Pastors at ISupportFreeSpeech.
