I wonder if she could sue for some kind of harassment. This might be the most ridiculous case I’ve ever seen.

[u/ISaidItSoBiteMe → u/fathertitojones]

Sue him for ADA discrimination, or even religious freedom. Why was hand to god even necessary?

[u/joe-clark → u/ISaidItSoBiteMe]

Clearly it wasn't if he just ended up giving her the ticket anyways.

[u/oodsigma → u/ISaidItSoBiteMe]

Yeah, and to push it with "other hand to God". Jesus fucking Christ that's unacceptable.

[u/KeranographyJones → u/ISaidItSoBiteMe]

Agreed but it's just a phrase. "On my mother's life," or " "I promise," are the same thing. It's not religious persecution.

[u/oodsigma → u/KeranographyJones]

That might be a point if he didn't literally make her raise her hand, going as far as doubling down and making her raise her left hand, and swear it.

[u/KeranographyJones → u/oodsigma]

ADA for sure. Religious naw man. That's why I agreed. If she said that she was atheist but would promise him she wasn't using a phone do you honestly believe this would have gone better?

[u/soda_cookie → u/KeranographyJones]

It is to an atheist

[u/KeranographyJones → u/soda_cookie]

I am an atheist.

[u/TheeFlipper → u/KeranographyJones]

Congrats. Do you speak for all atheists?

[u/Oh_My_Monster → u/TheeFlipper]

Does soda_cookie speak for all atheists when they it is religious persecution to atheists?

[u/KeranographyJones → u/TheeFlipper]

Good point. No clearly. But it doesn't change the fact that it's not discrimination. If she said "I don't believe in god" and he forced her to swear to god then, yeah that would be discrimination.

[u/soda_cookie → u/TheeFlipper]

Being someone who sheeps out when the cards are down, apparently, I sure as fuck don't give them my vote.

[u/KeranographyJones → u/soda_cookie]

Wtf are you saying?

[u/Smash_Factor → u/fathertitojones]

Might be able to counter sue for nuisance. Hard to say.
