48. It's not just 9 guys in robes
Similar decisions have been made in many of the state supreme courts and circuit courts across this country and upheld by appeals courts.

The system works. It just takes time. That's why we are just now seeing some success against all the red-scare, McCarthyite separation violations which took place in the 40's and 50's. Judge Moore's decalog is one of the few exceptions and was placed only a few years ago because he didn't like rulings to the contrary and has tried to make his courthouse the final test for right-wing, uber-conservative ideology.
