Court Supports Dismissal of JW Claim
by Carmel inlast nights paper had an article about the 9th circuit court upholding the lower court's dismissal of a claim brought by a disgrundled jw who quit the police acadamy because he was sure he wouldn't get through it due to his refusal to pledge allegience to the flag and uphold the us constitution.

Dateline timeline
