for not putting a plaque

Who? Where? Isn't this saying that the "Executive Director" is responsible for this, who is a government employee? Not that this makes it any better I was just wondering if this was something everyone had to do. Very weird law.

For discussion:

The executive director shall:
(a) Publicize the findings of the General Assembly stressing the dependence on
Almighty God as being vital to the security of the Commonwealth by
including the provisions of KRS 39A.285(3) in its agency training and
educational materials. The executive director shall also be responsible for
prominently displaying a permanent plaque at the entrance to the state's
Emergency Operations Center stating the text of KRS 39A.285(3);

First, let me say from experience that it's far better to be pissed off than pissed on. (I mentioned that to an angry police officer once, who really didn't see the humor --)

What is ACLU doing about this?

I googled "Kentucky law atheist sue" like Kris K suggested, and let me tell you, if you want HIGH comedy, check out the comments on the fourth hit, at Fox News Insider. Here's the link. Scroll down and prepare to be absolutely blown away by pure stupidity.

Surely it'll be knocked down in Federal Court. Lawsuits are the answer - make them spend money everytime they try to pull that kind of crap.

Spent one night in a dry county. I'm never going back. What is there to see in Kentucky, anyway? You can find horses in every state.
