Rev JC On Tuesday, US District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan Judge Patrick J. Duggan dismissed the lawsuit when they granted the county’s motion for a summary judgment. The American Freedom Law Center argued the case before Duggan and also asked that the court bar the sheriff’s department from violating the Christian’s First Amendment rights of free speech and religion by interfering with their right to gather on public property outside the festival. In typical liberal fashion, Duggan refused to the motion. In his ruling, Duggan stated: “The Court finds that the actual demonstration of violence here provided the requisite justification for [the Wayne County sheriffs’] intervention, even if the officials acted as they did because of the effect the speech had on the crowd.†In other words, the Christians were at fault and that the violent reaction of the Muslims was justified and the cops acted appropriately in arresting the Christians.
