The Supreme Court has ruled that a Pennsylvania school district can't force students to wear electronic tracking badges against their religious beliefs.

The court found that the school violated the students' freedom of religion by requiring them to wear the badges all day.

The school argued that the badges were necessary for safety reasons, but the court disagreed.

This decision sets a precedent for other schools requiring similar tracking technology, raising concerns about privacy and religious freedom.

Trivia Question❓

In 1775, during the American Revolutionary War, which American patriot famously shouted "Give me liberty, or give me death!" at the Virginia Convention?

Answer at the bottom of the newsletter

Guy Boyd was wounded by an accidental gunshot while socializing with friends in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Even though the high schoolers were underage to purchase guns, a loophole allowed his friend to obtain gun parts online and create a "ghost gun." The gun went off, injuring Boyd with fragments still in his brain.

The Biden administration implemented a rule restricting the purchase of gun kits by teenagers and those who fail background checks, which is now being challenged in court.

Ghost guns have been a growing issue, but regulations have led to a decrease in recoveries at crime scenes in various cities.
