OK: LeFlore County proceeds with Commandments planSouthwest Times Record: “Although the LeFlore County Commission tabled a decision regarding establishing an American Heritage Park that would house monuments on the county courthouse lawn, the unveiling of a planned Ten Commandments monument at the courthouse on Pearl Harbor Day will proceed, Charlie Horsley said Monday . . . In June, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver ruled Haskell’s monument was unconstitutional because it has ‘the impermissible principal or primary effect of endorsing religion.’ And in October, the Alliance Defense Fund, a nonprofit alliance of Christian attorneys based in Arizona, asked the Supreme Court to review the appeals court ruling.” |
