How do you find that he placed the 10 commandments above Alabamans?

He said that our nation's laws are based on the 10 commandments without qualification.

Also, given Justice Moore's history, what leads you to conclude that the people of Alabama did not express their support for Justice Moore's perspective when they elected him as Chief Justice?

Alabamans may want a monument of any sort in their courthouse. However, they have a right to justice that is impartial to religion. Moore failed to argue that the presence of the monument was not an abridgement of that right, and he further insinuated that the 10 commandments (without qualification) were the basis of our laws.

You know risk, I have heard your argument ad infinitum and its as ad absurdum today as it was the first time I heard it.

Your world is one populated by thought police and the prevetnion of crime before it happens.

Justice Moore has a written record. It should be relatively simple for you and your side to cite opinions of his where he disregarded his oath to uphold the Constituion of Alabama and substituted theocratic beliefs.

It should also be relatively easy for you to post the names of Alabama citizens who have had their rights violated or been coerced in some manner by some a law in Alabama establishing some nefarious theocracy.

So, risk, post away or quit telling tales.

He said that our nation's laws are based on the 10 commandments without qualification. How does the source of this nation's laws speak to Justice Moore's view of his neighbors?

Alabamans may want a monument of any sort in their courthouse. Justice Moore made a name for himself when he clashed with Ira DeMent over the presence of the 10 commandments in his courtroom--not as an interior decorator.
