Talking of Michelangelo

By Anne Skove, Esq.

Holy Moses!

People bicker about the placement (or not) of the Ten Commandments in courthouses, but this is the first time we've heard about someone who despised Moses.

In Massachusetts, a 97-year-old reproduction of Michelangelo's sculpture was destroyed by a man who apparently had a beef with the old testament lawgiver, sending the law librarian into fits.

May we suggest calling the ACLU? It's far less destructive to property.
