Nickle & Dime

They try to wear us down with frivolous lawsuits or keep submitting the same case over and over again hoping to find a friendly judge. Or sometimes they keep putting the same question on the ballot hoping that people overtime will stop voting on the question.
Anti-gay legal troll sues library because drag queens reading to kids is religious

Christopher Sevier is “a notorious legal troll with a troubling history of bigotry, violence, and stalking” according to the Bayou Brief. He’s filed lawsuits nationwide seeking the right to marry his porn-filled laptop and sued Congressman Alan Lowenthal for posting a rainbow flag outside his office door.

Sevier has lost every lawsuit and been suspended from practicing law in Tennessee. The state’s bar association said he has a “mental illness.”

Now Sevier is suing Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, Teresa Elberson, the director of the Lafayette Parish Library, and Attorney General Jeff Landry. He claims that the library’s Drag Queen Story Hour is an endorsement of secular humanism and, therefore, violates the First Amendment Establishment Clause.
[…]
If the federal court won’t shut down the reading time, the groups say they want a pastor on hand to “rebut” the drag queens. Since the event involves reading children’s stories like Clifford the Big Red Dog and Goodnight Moon, there isn’t anything to challenge except the people reading the stories.
I predict that he is going to win at least one case with his shotgun approach; he is bound to find a friendly judge who will also see his wrapped political views as being valid. As Trump packs the courts with anti-LGBT judges he is bound to find a friendly judge eventually.
