LOCKLAND, Ohio -- Scores of people have rallied in suburban Cincinnati to show support for a town hall Ten Commandments display that's the target of a lawsuit.
A sign depicting the commandments has long stood outside the hall in Lockland. The suit filed recently by village resident Christopher Knecht claims the display is unconstitutional.
Sign supporters at the rally on Sunday included Lockland Mayor Ronald Johnson. Speakers described the legal challenge as part of a broader assault on Christian rights and values.
Protest organizer Mark Mason says if the Ten Commandments display doesn't fare well in the lawsuit, his side is prepared to take the fight to an appeals court.
