I don't approve of the destruction of property. I also don't approve of religious zealots flouting the Constitution and putting a massive Christian monument on government property. So I was really annoyed the other day when I read that a 6-foot stone monument of the ten commandments was installed on the Capitol grounds in Little Rock, Arkansas. The monument was built with $26,000 in private donations and installed this past Tuesday. June 27. Less than 24 hours after it went up, at 4:45 Wednesday, Michael Reed, 32, plowed into the monument with his car (?) leaving a pile of granite. Reed faces three charges: felony for defacing a public object, trespassing the Capitol grounds, and first degree criminal mischief. Bullshit. This guy is a hero, a defender of the Constitution, who fought against an act that was opposed to the law of the land. Those bigots who approved of this Christian monument on public property were totally in the wrong. I hope the true patriots of Little Rock who understand the essential need for the separation of church and state will come out in support of Mr. Reed. Thanks, Mike.
