Terrible. The courts absolutely suck at protecting anyone that is outside of the fence of acceptable beliefs. Worst than that most people don't care at all about the rights of people they don't like. These groups are precisely the groups that need protection from democracy.
Exactly. What's really upsetting is that the Amish have been established in the US for many years, and have always enjoyed constitutional protection if their religious beliefs. It is only NY, which is not surprising, but it's a disturbing trend.

I imagine this will go to a higher court, right? It seems like a pretty fundamental issue.
Pisses me off. I used to live near an Amish community. Wonderful people. Things like this are what make me dispise the left. They claim to be able love and acceptance but it is a complete farce. If you are in the tent they protect you... as long as you are useful.
When I was a kid at least the left seemed to actually defend people's civil liberties. It always appealed to me. With this election I think that is officially dead. The only old left people I know were RFK Jr people.
I have plenty of beefs with the right but the left has really shown their true colors in recent years. They just want power like that right does. It's why I'm a perennial political fugitive.
