9. The US Constitution doesn't forbid "planting grass and flowers" so your analogy is full of suckage.
Yes, The Ten Commandments are displayed with Moses on the Supreme Court - along with Confucius and Solon as examples of "law givers" - not as a religious doctrine. If a school, say in a a law class room, wants to post them ALL in context, I'm sure MOST thinking people won't have a problem with it (I exempt freepers and Fox viewers from that "Most People" because they would have a cow if Bill O'Lielly and friends ever pointed out who else is on display).

Lastly, your inane comparison between a PETITION, which, like voter registration, HAS to be open to scrutiny by the public at large for several reasons; most importantly VERIFICATION..... and a civil suit before the court is, well, fucking stupid. All sorts of information is kept, at the Judge's discretion, from public view. Keeping the plaintiff's name from view has no bearing on the facts and law as they are laid before the court.

Fox Viewers: opinions a mile wide and a half inch deep.
