The right to express their beliefs in a public venue, just like any other expression? If group A is free to put up a display with Santa and Rudolf in a public place, but group B is not free to put up a display with Baby Jesus in the same public place, and the only reason for the discrepancy is that one is an expression of religion while the other is not, then that absolutely is a violation of the right of free speech of group B. How can it not be? You're singling out just religious speech to be barred from public places.

Where did this happen?
You're kidding, right? Isn't this entire discussion about one side arguing it's ok to exclude religious displays on public land (because they are religious in nature), and the other arguing it's not?
