A TN federal court favors the sexual agenda that is coming against our children.

On Friday, June 2, 2023, Judge Thomas Parker of Tennessee’s Western District Federal Court ruled the new Tennessee law protecting minors from sexually explicit and obscene performances as unconstitutional on First Amendment grounds.

The judge claims that the legislature engaged in viewpoint discrimination in passing this law rather than fulfilling its state’s interest in protecting children.

The judge’s claim on viewpoint discrimination is interesting because, before his appointment to the federal bench, he was a shareholder in Baker Donaldson, a large law firm, that regularly financially supports Pride festivals, including such events in Memphis.

Contrary to media reports, it is important to recognize that this court order does not extend beyond preventing the enforcement of this law by the Shelby County District Attorney. Meaning, this law is still enforceable in 94 counties in our state. It is incumbent on DAs across the state to prosecute those who violate this statute and protect our children from these obscene acts.

Statements made by Judge Parker in this ruling are very concerning considering the implications that this case may have (especially on the topic of gender identity) as it proceeds to the Sixth Circuit and we would wager on to the Supreme Court.

Be prayerful for Attorney General Skrmetti as he poses the state’s continued defense of this law. We cannot lose this battle.
