In this day and time of intolerance on every level, they should just do away with all statues...that would settle the issue...tear down the Washington Monument while they're at it and the Lincoln one, too...and Monticello...all of em...gone...:mrgreen:

No need to be so triggered and angry, I am just stating a fact. OK, to be fair the FAR left. I am not the one going out and destroying monuments. You may not support that yourself, but raging at me wont change the facts.

is not a fact the far left might be a fact so long as there's no one you can call that who is anti vandalism

and are you making a distinction between movements to have monuments taken down legally and vigilante attacks on them?

Which establishment of religion is being respected by the 10 commandments?
Click to expand...

“The 'establishment of religion' clause of the First Amendment means at least this: Neither a state nor the Federal Government can set up a church. Neither can pass laws which aid one religion, aid all religions, or prefer one religion over another. Neither can force nor influence a person to go to or to remain away from church against his will or force him to profess a belief or disbelief in any religion. No person can be punished for entertain- [330 U.S. 1, 16] ing or professing religious beliefs or disbeliefs, for church attendance or non-attendance. No tax in any amount, large or small, can be levied to support any religious activities or institutions, whatever they may be called, or whatever from they may adopt to teach or practice religion. Neither a state nor the Federal Government can, openly or secretly, participate in the affairs of any religious organizations or groups and vice versa. In the words of Jefferson, the clause against establishment of religion by law was intended to erect 'a wall of separation between Church and State.' Everson v Board of Education of Ewing TP 330 U.S. 1 (1947)

Legislation to erect a religious monument from only one religion or set of religions (and not open to all religions) clearly violates the establishment clause as defined in Everson.
