What law did Moore break, I am confused.

I appreciate your honesty. I'm not inclined or qualified to instruct you on how the judicial system works. The school system, hopefully you attended, should have explained the judicial system...perhaps in a class called history or civics. If you never received this instruction you will have to trust me on this...the simplified explanation is Judge Moore erected a monument of the 10 Commandments in his court He was instructed by a court order to remove this monument. Moore defied the order. That is breaking the law. The court order was based upon the 1st and 14th Amendment to the Constitution. You can learn about the incident on the web or here at FR. Good luck.

What you lack in knowledge you make up in your condescension. In my stupid school, they did have a civics class but either the teacher was too stupid or I wasn't paying attention, but I was told that the courts do not make laws. That cannot be true because you claim otherwise. I was also taught that the 1st Amendment prohibited the federal govt cannot prohibit the free exercise of religion. But my school was too stupid to furnish the actual Constitution, so they must have made that up. Furthermore, I was taught that the 14th Amendment was about equal protection and no one even claimed that this was a violation of equal protection. But what do I know, I didn't attend the meeting for party tools and specialize in becoming someone else's parrot.
