And WHO was handcuffed and led away?

People obstructing justice, just like the misguided wackos who stood with Wallace in the schoolhouse door?

so where it was UnConstitutional?

Constitutional? Where have you been? Political correctness has replaced the rule of law over the last decade. You don't live in a Free Republic anymore, silly. The principalities are now in the high places. You obey the new rules of anti-Christ, or you face the pagan lawyers in a court of desolation.
Now c'mon. Straighten up.

I always applaud upholding the rule of law.

Hey Buddy, prior to 1861 in this country, it was legal for Southern states to own slaves. I guess you would applaud upholding that federal rule of law just like this one.

Just because it's a law doesn't make it morally correct.

There's also a law you can kill eight month old babies, I guess you agree with that law also.

You would have been a British supporter in 1776.

Maybe it's time for the supporters to have open gay sex at the monument.

If they had gay sex they certainly would not be arrested-the authorities would be afraid they would be labled homophobes by the media and they wouldn't want that.

It is a public building, there are NO private areas in it, it belongs to the state of Alabama and it's citizens.

I believe that one solution that the Fed. Court proposed was that the 10 Laws could be moved to the Judges office and the problem would be solved - this implies that there is SOME private areas within the STATE OWNED building

It's too late for me to read this and absorb it, but I'm copying it into a MS Word document and saving it to read later.

Thanks!

Rule of law? Then I guess you are a pro-abortion Catholic.

Actually, I'm pro-life. I vote for pro-life candidates.

You're hysterical, Palladin, as evidenced by your desire to attend an SSPX chapel.

I don't follow a schismatic sect. If you want to worry, you better worry about yourself.

I support the State of Alabama keeping the Decalogue based on 10th Amendment grounds, provided it does so in a manner consistent with its own state constitution and not on Moore's personal whim.

Nah, it's just coincident with the COnstitutional Right not to be offended by whatever offends you.

quote "...THE FIRST AMENDMENT ONLY FORBIDS A LEGAL ASCENDANCY OF ONE RELIGION OVER ANOTHER...."

"Only"?

I must beg to differ; the First Amendment also provides the "...Congress shall make no law...prohibiting the free exercise..." of religion.

How a federal judge, how any judge may conclude that it has the power to restrict a citizen's free exercise of religion based on but half of the equation is tyranny alive.

The Founders of this countrhy upheld this law.

What the hell are you talking about?

Either you're drinking again, or you've gone way over the edge.

Get help, man!

Sure you do, the Federal Courts are a schismatic sect, they create new law out of whole cloth.

I should clarify that I am referring only to the establishment clause portion of the amendment in my statement that Chummy quotes in post 53.

It can't be justice if it is in opposition to the Constitution, the Supreme Law of our Nation.

Read the entire First Amendment, not just the part that supports the leftist wackos' misguided half-conclusion.

True. I meant to say establishment clause.
