A stone monument of the Ten Commandments that sits on a street behind the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington and was the subject of controversy in the past has been toppled by vandals.

The 3-foot-by-3-foot granite monument weighs 850 pounds and sits out front of the headquarters of Faith and Action, a Christian outreach ministry. The group installed the tablets in a garden outside its offices in 2006, and the group's president said the tablets were angled so that justices arriving at the high court would see them.

Since DC has to have the most cameras, one would assume that they have video of the people doing it. I am surprised that it is not viewed live at all times since it is near the SC building.

Do you have a website for the organization? I feel like donating.

It’s been said here before, every morning when I wake up and find that God had not buried this country in fire and brimstone; I marvel at His patience.

Oh, lighten up. The leftwing socialist/communist kooks are just showing us their tolerance. Again.

Thank you. The monument will be put back up in obedience to God.
