A Louisiana lawman is livid over the federal government’s decision to cut off funds for two programs to help troubled young people, all, he says,  because he refused to sign a pledge to bar prayer or any mention of God at their meetings.

Julian Whittington, the sheriff of Bossier Parish, La., told Fox News the Department of Justice Office of Civil Rights defunded $30,000 for their Young Marines chapter as well as a youth diversion program.  Federal officials objected to a voluntary student-led prayer in the department’s youth diversion program and an oath recited by the Young Marines that mentions God, according to Whittington, who blasted what he considers the government’s  “aggression and infringement of our religious freedoms.”

So, lefties are for troubled youths.

The Supreme court is going be busy.  You can't discriminate, unless it pertains to religion.

Time to find other sources of funding.

"Take King Hussein's coin, play King Hussein's tune" is the order of the day.

They are for creating more trouble youths.  That is the basis for every liberal program aimed at social engineering.
