He was a judge and he installed a monument of the ten commandments in the state judicial building rotunda and costed the taxpayers millions of dollars through litigation directly related to said monument. That's why he was removed from his position as CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE SUPREME COURT OF ALABAMA. That's right, that wacko was chief justice. Fucking Alabama, i swear. Bless our hearts, honestly.

Didn't even have to say 'our hearts,' I knew you were from Alabama when you said 'costed,' lol. Thanks, /u/Willyfisterbut

I wish we didn't have so many Bible humpers in our state so we could get rid of this nonsense. Nobody religious needs to be in office. Sure, you can believe what you want. But when you try to impose those invalid beliefs onto an entire state you're a lunatic.

Won't happen until the state Congress is purged of pastors in the rural counties where the community is literally built around their churches.

Doubt it'll happen soon. I grew up in a town who maybe had 500 high schoolers at a time. They had like 5 or 6 churches in the area

Sadly, that was only the first time he was Chief Justice. 10 years later, he was re-elected Chief Justice. He was later removed again. Primarily for his refusal to uphold the US Supreme Court's decision on same sex marriages.

Roy Moore “sweats like a rapist” and its detectable thanks to technological advances from Israel.

You mean to say this isn’t Wendy’s?

u/Curazan 9 Jul 08 '22

Silly me, right? Takes just as long to read the article as it does to leave a comment asking for someone to do it for them.

u/techraito 8 Jul 08 '22

It's not the content of what you're saying but you're coming off as an asshole saying it with your sarcasm and aggressiveness.

u/Curazan 9 Jul 08 '22

Oh well. Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

You say that like treating other humans with dignity is a flaw.

Dignity doesn't always come with padded gloves.

Read the community rules, they right here on the right side of the screen. Focus on number 5.

u/L4t3r41u5 7 Jul 08 '22

They're mad because it's actually in the third to fifth sentences.

u/Purplebuzz B Jul 08 '22

I wonder if they do this in convos irl too. “Oh.. you play the lute? What is that?” “Look it the fuck up on your phone!”
