: AlthouseIf the city puts up a donated 10 Commandments monument, must it put up every other donated monument lest it violate Free Speech?
Will the Justices? vision be fogged by a cloud of potential horribles? The Solicitor General?s brief well illustrates this argument: ?Under the decision below, a city?s display of a privately donated monument to Abraham Lincoln could entitle an individual to insist that the city permit the erection of a monument to Jefferson Davis, or a group could insist that the presence of the memorial in [Pleasant Grove?s] Pioneer Park commemorating the September 11 attacks entitles it to erect a memorial to the terrorists who carried them out.?
