There are those who heed the warning “don’t mess with Texas,” and then there are those who do the exact opposite.

Activist Chaz Stevens is in the second group.

He’s taking on a Texas law that requires public schools to display signs and posters with the national motto “In God We Trust” in “conspicuous places.” The law requires that the signs were either donated or purchased from private donations to the school.
