I have absolutely ZERO guilt for encouraging kids and teens to deface Louisiana’s Ten Commandments poster if/when it goes up. Because it is a fucking PASTICHE. Per Slacktivist Fred on bsky…
Eleven Commandments.
Louisiana's law mandates a specific text. Not from Exodus, or Deuteronomy, but from the Fraternal Order of Eagles. They used a KJV-sounding pastiche adapted from the Bible and paraphrased by a Minnesota juvenile court judge in the 1950s.
It's not the Bible. It's the Eagles.
