Title: Because of the Seventh Amendment, Discovery Wins Settlement for Free Speech Infringement by State-Run California Science Center.
Topic: Free Speech Rights

Discussed by Joshua Youngkin
with Discovery Institute (www.discovery.org)

In the face of abundant evidence of its violation of free speech rights, the California Science Center settled the case for $110,000 and invited the Intelligent Design proponents back.

Without our Seventh Amendment right to trial by jury, this would have never happened. Remember, we must protect our Seventh Amendment rights.
