    This one might not because it might be possible to reject its installation on that ground.

    The Satanic Temple uses it to get Christian statues removed by saying “oh you have a Christian statue so in order to not discriminate based on religion, you need to install ours too”

    I can imagine that the US is so prude that boobs might prevent that from working

        The law is the First Amendment of the US Constitution.

        Forcing public building, by law, to display religious doctrine of one single religion is a textbook example of breaking the First Amendment.

        If you can’t understand that, I dunno what to say other than try reading a book.

            Yeah, sometimes they are…

            In the case of the First Amendment though, I’m gonna have to disagree.
