Ten Commandments monument OK’d for Arkansas Capitol
Thursday

By John Lyon / Arkansas News Bureau

LITTLE ROCK — A state panel gave final approval Thursday to the placement of a Ten Commandments monument on the grounds of the Arkansas State Capitol.

The Capitol Arts and Grounds Commission voted unanimously to approve the location and design of the monument, which a 2015 law requires the state to allow if private sources provide the funding.

The American History and Heritage Foundation, the group that applied for approval of the project, must provide the Secretary of State’s Office with full funding for the project, plus money for a maintenance fund, before construction can begin, said Danielle Fusco, a spokesman for the office.

Nice story but read the rest, the ACLU already says it would be unconstitutional; then, in this nutty society, some Satanic group might want their own monument per something similar in Oklahoma or the Freedom from Religion people, will want to get into the act and sue them.
