    Each poster must also be paired with a four-paragraph context statement that says the Ten Commandments “were a prominent part of American public education for almost three centuries,” among other things.

    That’s blatantly false.

    This whole thing is so dumb it’s appalling.

    • It’s getting shot down, sooner or later.

    • I doubt many kids are engaging in the prohibited behaviors like adultery, murder and idol worship. They are, however, lying, covetous little bastards.

    • Some org like the Satanic Temple is going to make hay with this. Muslims should be salivating at a chance to get their own words on the wall. Oh please god let’s get some Church of Satan rules posted! “When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him.” At least that one’s applicable on the playground.

    • Have these people never known any children?! (Biblically “known”? Fine, ya got me there.) The religious kids are familiar and the others won’t give a fuck. Bet money if I ask my little kids what’s on their schoolroom walls they’d be clueless. “Uh…”

    • If it’s a political ploy for votes, the Christians already have a lock on the GOP vote. This will win zero hearts and minds and will likely lose some of the same.

    • Is it meant to keep children in the church after they grow up? See previous bullet point about backfiring.

    • It’s a no-win scenario. Even Kirk would back off this one. Hell, even worse, it’s a lose-lose scenario. There is zero to be gained here.

    • It’s getting shot down, sooner or later.

    I ain’t even mad. Let them waste their money and energy.

      They don’t plan on arbitrating the law fairly. Just like the book banning for obscenity, they choose what qualifies as obscene

    We’ve got one set of ten, yes. What about the others?
