A federal judge in Utah has ruled that drag shows are protected by the first amendment. "Public spaces are public spaces. Public spaces are not private spaces. Public spaces are not majority spaces. The First Amendment of the United States Constitution ensures that all citizens, popular or not, majority or minority, conventional or unconventional, have access to public spaces for public expression," begins the opinion. 🔥 🔥 🔥 https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.utd.139943/gov.uscourts.utd.139943.63.0.pdf

It will be interesting to see how many church leaders’ heads explode.

    The sad thing about this is that they even need protection.

    The ruling was quite stark.

    Straight up starts with saying “Public spaces are public spaces. Public spaces are not private spaces. Public spaces are not majority spaces.”
