WHEREAS, the passage of new laws to stop violence has had little, if any,
beneficial effect and has diminished the personal liberty of law- abiding citizens; and
WHEREAS, our freedom can best be maintained if we respect the lives, person,
and property of others; and
WHEREAS, there is no better code of moral conduct than The Ten
Commandments, and many of our laws have their origin in The Ten Commandments.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Harnett County Board of
Commissioners supports legislation to permit the display of The Ten Commandments in
all public buildings.
Adopted this 21St day of February, 2000.
