I was waiting to hear about this and found it interesting that the 9th actually went with the historical (actual/factual) definition of the clause.

Especially since, there was (possibly) a larger target involved?...

>> Freedom from Religion Foundation

A collection of clowns that don’t have the capacity to differentiate themselves from “religion.”

Jesus statue on federal land in Montana doesn’t violate the Constitution...

...but federal ownership of land in Montana almost certainly DOES violate the Constitution.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!

Libtards need to learn that, to them, Jesus is secular.

They missed the most fundamental reason that the statue should stay. Only Congress could establish a religion through their powers to legislate and they haven’t done that.

The same reason Judge Roy Moore’s Ten Commandments monument should still be in front of his court house.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

"Congress" in this case specifically means the Federal legislature. Thus to make a case that the First Amendment is broken, why should one not first be required to identify the specific law that congress made in violation of it? What is this specific law in the case of this statue?
