Default Pulaski in the news again

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...r-installation

Arkansas Ten Commandments monument destroyed hours after installation.

The privately funded granite slab had been in place outside the state capitol in Little Rock for less than 24 hours before it was knocked from its plinth and smashed to pieces.

Michael Tate Reed, 32, of Van Buren in Arkansas, was arrested and taken to the Pulaski county jail shortly after 7.30am on preliminary charges of defacing objects of public interest, criminal trespass and first-degree criminal mischief. An arrest report lists his occupation as unemployed/disabled.

Arkansas’ monument is a replica of a display at the Texas capitol that was upheld by the US supreme court in 2005.

So much for separation of Church and State.

have you seen the utter bollocks coming out of our Texas Senate lately.... I don't know why they don't just cut out the middle man (aka The Constitution) and go straight to the Bible, and probably the Old Testament at that.

With ISIS and Texas, the world is a scary place.

1st degree criminal mischief is an actual charge? Is there a 2nd and 3rd degree as well?

Even weirder is that he is a fundy Christian - it was all over the Christian news when everyone assumed he was a militant atheist, then was quietly hushed up when they found out he was one of them (albeit one who believed in the constitution).
