They probably did it themselves to further their stupid, godless publicity stunt - most would've destroyed their lame sign.

Applications also were OK'd for four other displays at the state Capitol in the coming days, including one honoring "Festivus," a faux holiday made popular by comedian Jerry Seinfeld.Bwahaha.

I believe, my constitution-loving friends, that the phrase you’re looking for is “equal protection”, which you have.

Destroying others’ property is not survival of the fittest. If the vandals are shot on the face, then that would be survival of the fittest.

Or a war on jackasses that want to believe they are God's Holy Warriors.

No, they mean “special protection.” The Consitution states that the government is required to establish their religion.

Agreed. How convenient, it was found in a ditch and given to a radio station covering the heist by an unidentified man. Puleeze. Now the atheists are requesting state protection due to this vicious attack. Sounds very scripted.

This is akin to the KKK asking for protection for their burning cross errected next to a Black History Month display.
Freedom of religion does NOT mean freedom FROM religion.
Those who say there should be no religion tolerated in the public square should be just as vocal against ALL politics in the public square. That first amendment protects the right of the religious, as well as the political.

“Gaylor says she’s requesting special protection for the sign during the remainder of the holiday season.”
A Trooper should walk up to the sign and dump Holy Water on it. There it’s protected.
Come to think of it, Olympia is only 3 hours from my house, perhaps I can help. (devilish smile).... ;>)

The fit protect their property themselves. They don’t complain to the govt.

... the State Patrol to provide special protection for it ...
I have an idea. If it goes missing, just pull out the ol' Crayolas and make another. Way cheaper than paying Smokie's wages from now 'til Christmas.

They can protect the sign their damb selves.
They have a right to free speech... they dont have a right to free advertising.
I applaud the people who stole it.
They should have burned it.

In this case, a shot in the face would be a good way to protect against vandalism. But, I don’t think it is legal.
Thus, they are asking for those are PAID to protect and serve .
