Thou shall not remove the Ten Commandments.

That�s the declaration from a federal district court � 
dismissing a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union 
against Dixie County, Fla. and ending a six-year legal battle.

The ACLU sued the county after they allowed a private citizen to 
erect a six-ton monument of the Ten Commandments atop the steps 
of the courthouse.

A 75-year-old North Carolina man, who happens to be an ACLU 
member, objected to the monument � which led to the lawsuit.

Liberty Counsel represented the county and challenged the ACLU�s 
standing to bring a suit on behalf of a member who lives 
hundreds of miles away from the monument.�

Senior District Judge Maurice Paul dismissed the case after the 
ACLU admitted that their client did not plan to buy property in 
Dixie County and therefore lacks standing to sue.

In addition to dismissing the case, the ACLU will be responsible 
for several thousand dollars in court costs.

�This was a great victory,� Liberty Counsel Founder Mathew 
Staver told Fox News. �What it says about the bully tactics by 
the ACLU is that if you resist them, you can win.�

�The usual way they win is my intimidation or default � when the 
government officials cave in under the threat of a lawsuit,� 
Staver said.

The county had a policy that allowed private citizens to put up 
different kinds of displays � including the religious monuments.

Harry Mihet, senior litigation counsel for Liberty Counsel, said 
the ACLU got caught with its hands in the �constitutional cookie 
jar.�

�It�s prolonged campaign against the good citizens of Dixie 
County has come to a screeching halt,� he said. �In getting 
kicked out of court, the ACLU has learned that it cannot impose 
its San Francisco values upon a small town in Florida � using a 
phantom member from North Carolina.

The ACLU did not return calls seeking comment.

Are you obligated as an armed civilian, to defend unarmed 
liberals while you are both under fire by foreign agents of the 
outlaw Obama administration?

No.  Shoot the liberals immediately so they can't stab you in 
the back while you are defending yourself, then return a 
controlled rate of aimed fire.  ���
