If they eliminate the presence of god, religion...the tenants of our Founding...they begin to successfully remove the linch pins that hold it all together.
However, this year, facing threats of a costly legal battle, Mayor Patrick Kitching is discontinuing the festive display. Using a tactic that it frequently relies upon, the FFRF threatens lawsuits as a means of intimidating communities into removing religious displays from public property — a plan that has, in instances like this one, proven effective.
Not wanting to waste public dollars on a costly lawsuit that Alsip would potentially lose, the mayor made the tough choice to nix the tradition.
