In the News: Bill would put "God Bless America" on Alabama car tags |
From the article:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BOB JOHNSON
Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - The phrase "God Bless America" would be added to
Alabama's already crowded license plates if a bill proposed by a state
legislator becomes law.
State Rep. Steve Hurst, D-Munford, has prefiled a bill in the Alabama
House that would require most Alabama car tags to include the phrase
"God Bless America." Some specialty license plates and motorcycle tags
would be exempt.
Hurst said he got the idea when the saw the words "God Bless America"
on a specialty prisoner of war car tag.
"I thought why don't we do the same thing for all the tags in the
state of Alabama. That will let all the people in America know that we
are a Bible Belt state," Hurst said.

I certainly hope the secular population of Alabama fight this. Being
required to display "god Bless America" on your car must be
unconstitutional.

Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
Court who will ensure church and state are joined
at the hip like clergy and altar boys.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president
represents, more and more closely, the inner soul
of the people. On some great and glorious day the
plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last and the White House will be adorned
by a downright moron." --- H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
Religion is the original war crime.
