A little more than four years ago, Brandi Swindell, Bryan Fischer and a group called Generation Life hoped to stop the city council of Boise, Idaho, from removing a Ten Commandments monument that had stood in a city park since 1965.

The city council accepted no public input into its decision, so Generation Life was compelled to file a lawsuit seeking a temporary restraining order on the city's action.

Cost of fighting for Ten Commandments: $10,000

Feel free to put your 10 commandments in a church or on private property.
Alternately, you might start seeing the Koran and all other religious tomes quoted in public space.
