They will have no legal standing, but Sea-Tac would rather not litigate. Since the ACLU gets money everytime they win one of these "civil rights" cases, they have little to lose.

Yes they would. And Sea-Tac would lose. For better or worse the case law on this has been settled for years. If a public agency wants exclusively Christian displays during the Christian season, to the exclusion of others, they're out of luck.

If SeaTac takes down all displays of anything, they don't lose. If the menorahs go up, somebody will sue. Probably the ACLU. Even with the SCOTUS ruling, they'll sue. The lawsuit itself is the weapon, not the verdict.

In regards to displaying decorated trees during the holiday season, I've understood quite differently from Allegheny County v. Greater Pittsburgh ACLU and from ACLU of Illinois v St. Charles. Case law has been clear that Christmas trees (or holiday trees as they're now called) are a secular, not a religious symbol, and their public display creates no constitutional conflict.

Do you think this is a good thing?
