Is having the Ten Commandments in a state judicial building...

[J-Mann]

I don't think we need the ten commandments in our judicial buildings, but it is clearly not a violation of the first amendment.

That's exactly right.  There's really no reason for them to be there, but it isn't infringing on anyone else's rights.

[J-Mann]

That is false. Amendments 2 through 8 apply to the states; the first does not.

Now that's a little bit curious; what is your logic behind that?  Why are you picking and choosing which ones apply and which ones don't?  I know very little about Constitutional law, but I'm not familiar with any of the Amendments having an asterix behind them that signifies they really don't apply.
