What's their rationale for saint statues, and those two specifically?

Terrible use of tax dollars!!

Catholic Church has lots of Tax Free money- let them Front the Money!

No, you don't want them using their money this way. Churches fronting money over certain things in government could start yet another precedent we'd have to fight against.

Was it not a Religious Statue? Do they NOT pay taxes?
That Ship has sailed in the US- where is the separation of Church & State as per the Constitution?

Perhaps the building also needs a couple of statues of Baphomet to even the score?

City of Quincy in what state?

azbz1234.bsky.social•14 days ago

Massachusetts. It’s in the linked article, although they should have included it right in the post.

k9ykradio.bsky.social•14 days ago

Oh, there it is in the 3rd paragraph. Should have been at the top of the article when “Quincy” was first mentioned. It’s like the person who wrote the article just assumed there was only one city named Quincy and everyone knew where it was. 🙄

Can we have some
