Arizona Republicans Kill Off Bill
Requiring All Devices To Have Porn Filters |
|
The legislation, seemingly the
brainchild of an anti-LGBTQ activist, also would
have allowed parents to sue anyone who helps their
child bypass the internet filter. An amendment added
to ensure that such lawsuits could only be filed
against adults, and not other children, was added
but failed to convince lawmakers to support the
proposal. |

Man Who Sued Apple For Failing To Save Him From Porn
Now Suing US Attorney General To Strike Down Section
230 |
|
"Batshit litigant and armchair
legislator Chris Sevier is back! The man who once
sued Apple because he could access porn from his
laptop (entendre intended) is still vexing
courthouses with his attempts to sue his way back
into the good graces of social media platforms after
being asked to leave because [taps “batshit” in
opening sentence]. The man who believes the only way
through his addiction to porn is to sue or legislate
it into the ground has filed a lawsuit [PDF] in a
Florida federal court that’s full of the insanity
we’ve come to know and (well, probably not love)
expect from a Sevier lawsuit." |

Anti-Gay
Advocate Who Lobbied In Kansas Now ‘Security
Concern’ In Missouri Statehouse |
|
"Chris Sevier, the
anti-gay, anti-porn advocate who met with
Kansas lawmakers earlier this month, has
been deemed a security concern in the
Missouri Capitol. Missouri Senate
Administrator Patrick Baker sent out an
email early Thursday morning to the entire
senate and staff with the subject line
“security concern” and a picture of Sevier.
He said two Senate offices and one in the
House of Representatives reported
uncomfortable meetings with the former
Tennessee lawyer. [...] “While the
individual has not threatened anyone in the
building, staff have described these
interactions as jittery and/or suspicious,”
the email read. “Please remember at any time
if find you yourself in a situation which
you feel uncomfortable or threatened, in the
least, please take immediate steps to notify
Capitol Police.” Lawmakers who saw Sevier
told The Star he introduced himself as
someone from the “defacto attorney general’s
office” and wore a suit tucked into combat
boots." |

What We Know About
The Lafayette Drag Queen Story Time Lawsuit |
|
"The man who filed a federal
lawsuit in south Louisiana on Wednesday seeking to
stop Lafayette’s Drag Queen Story Time has been
accused of stalking, has a record of filing
unorthodox suits and is not licensed to practice law
in Louisiana. The suit alleges that the event
violates the First Amendment and asks a judge to
prevent the program from taking place on Oct. 6. If
the event goes on, plaintiffs ask for a rebuttal
period to discuss sex and gender issues. Attorney
Christopher Sevier filed the suit on behalf of
Warriors for Christ and Special Forces of Liberty.
[...] In his lawsuit over the Lafayette Public
Library’s first Drag Queen Story Time, Sevier
references the situation and wrote that he sued the
Tennessee Board of Professional Responsibility “for
unethically targeting him because he is a Christian
and a whistleblower.” “The Tennessee Supreme Court
hatched a reprisal plan to shut him up by abusing
the mental health profession,” he wrote in the
Lafayette suit." |

Inside The Troubling History Of Chris Sevier, The
Anti-Gay Activist Who Wants To Marry His Laptop |
|
You may have heard the news
that a U.S. District Court in Utah just dismissed a
lawsuit by a man looking to marry a laptop because,
among other reasons, his laptop wasn’t 15 years old
and thus hadn’t reached the legal age of consent.
Judges ultimately dismissed the lawsuit because its
plaintiff had only filed it as a way to challenge
the 2015 Supreme Court ruling legalizing same-sex
marriage in the U.S.. Though the laptop-lover has
promised to appeal the ruling, he’s actually an
anti-gay activist named Chris Sevier who has filed
similar lawsuits in Florida and Texas. |

The Man Who Wants To Tax Porn Thinks His Past
Assault Case Is "Fake News" |
|
"Sevier has a warrant out for
his arrest in Tennessee for failure to appear at
criminal contempt proceedings. Sevier had failed to
pay child support and violated a restraining order
by communicating with his former wife. The
restraining order stems from Sevier’s 2011 arrest
and conviction for assaulting his father-in-law
during a fight over a visitation rights of his
then-7-month-old son, whom Sevier tried to take
during a supervised visit. Sevier’s baby was also
injured in the altercation and taken to the ER.
Sevier said he hadn’t heard of the warrant, denied
facing any penalty for the assault, and said his
legal woes were because he was “subject to a fake
prosecutorial campaign” in Tennessee and Texas,
waged in part due to his Christian faith." |

Attorneys
In Same-Sex Marriage Suit Seek Ouster Of Intervening
Attorney |
|
"Supporters and foes of a
same-sex marriage lawsuit playing out in federal
court here finally found a point of agreement: They
don't want the case expanded to decide if there's a
constitutional right to marry an inanimate object.
Attorneys for both sides filed a joint motion asking
U.S. District Court Judge John Sedwick to reject the
motion to intervene filed by Chris Sevier. They said
the issues they are litigating — the rights of
same-sex couples to marry and the rights of
survivors of same-sex relationships — has nothing to
do with whether Sevier can marry a pillow or even an
animal. What that means, the lawyers told Sedwick,
is that the outcome of this lawsuit won't affect
Sevier's rights. But Sevier, a lawyer whose right to
practice was suspended in Tennessee, said his rights
are precisely at issue." |
