"As I recall, it was the oppressed class itself that engaged in civil disobedience."

And your point? There are many Christians in this nation who feel that there are those who would love nothing more than to oppress us. (And I've seen many comments from people on these Moore threads that would only support that notion.)

Many people, not just Judge Moore, feel that the removal of the monument is not really about protecting constitutional rights of that whiny little biddy with her panties in a twist. It's about suppressing any perceived reference to the biblical God from the public arena. Which, in the end, will suppress the free speech rights of Christians in particular.

I agree. It's about making sure a government official does not use his position and facilities to promote a religious view. Those of us who feel that way would be against him if he were Zoroastrian, Buddhist, Unitarian, Jewish or atheist.
