After Supreme Court Win, Christian Students Accept Monetary Settlement From College That Violated Their Free Speech Rights​

Excerpt:

Two Christian former college students whose Supreme Court victory allowed them to pursue nominal damages after their right to share their faith on campus was infringed settled their lawsuit in exchange for a payment of more than $800,000 by the college.

As The Epoch Times previously reported, the case goes back to 2016 when Chike Uzuegbunam—then a student at Georgia Gwinnett College, a public college in Lawrenceville, Georgia—was on campus handing out religious literature and sharing his Christian beliefs. A college official stopped him, saying he was breaking school rules by not speaking within the boundaries of an approved “speech zone.”

The Chief Justice wouldn't know the Constitution if you wrapped it around a 2x4 and hit him in the head with it. What a despicable man.
