Lincoln Anthony (8th Period)-"Arizona city bars Satanic Temple prayer at council meeting"

In Scottsdale, Arizona, officials have stated that the Satanic Temple will be forbidden from saying a prayer at a City Council meeting in early July. The Temple has stated that the Council did indeed greenlight them saying a prayer at the meeting, but they have more recently came forward saying that only establishments closely linked with the Scottsdale community could say the prayer.

Once again Lincoln Anthony has come in clutch with some current and relevant news. While I gotta say that Satanism isn't really the one for me, this is an obvious suppression of their first amendment right. If I wanted to perform some candlelit rituals and maybe partake in some chants at the city hall, who is the government to stop me from doing so? Don't forget that freedom of religion comes before the right to bear arms, the latter of which I can pretty safely say is something the good, Christian citizens of Arizona would have some kind of a hissy fit if they couldn't wave their various firearms around at all times in protection of their country. Well anyways thanks for reading this guys see you later. ;)
