Ten Commandments monument moved Complying with federal court order, granite marker rolled to more private place in Ala. judicial building; Protesters remain calm The Associated Press Originally published August 27, 2003, 11:12 AM EDT MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- A moving crew rolled a massive Ten Commandments [sic re upper case] monument out of the rotunda of the Alabama Judicial Building today to comply with a federal court order, as anguished protesters prayed at the building's steps. It took about an hour and a half to lift the 5,280-pound granite marker and roll it from its public site to a private place in the building. About 100 pro-monument supporters who have been on a weeklong vigil on the building's front plaza were urged to remain calm and not rush the glass doors. Some yelled, but the crowd was restrained. Two dozen city police were stationed around the perimeter of the building and others patrolled the surrounding block on motorcycles. Continues......... sunspot.net.
