Boise Slaps Christian Duo With Lien

Fox 12 Boise:
Two anti-abortion activists in Boise are asking supporters for $10,131 for legal bills, after the city of Boise slapped them with a lien on their property following their unsuccessful fight to return a Ten Commandments monument to a public park. Bryan Fischer, a lobbyist who heads up the conservative Idaho Values Alliance, and anti-abortion activist Brandi Swindell were ordered by a federal U.S. District Court judge to pay Boise's attorney fees in the 2004 case.

Cost of fighting for Ten Commandments: $10,000
A little more than four years ago, Brandi Swindell, Bryan Fischer and a group called Generation Life hoped to stop the city council of Boise, Idaho, from removing a Ten Commandments monument that had stood in a city park since 1965. The city council accepted no public input into its decision, so Generation Life was compelled to file a lawsuit seeking a temporary restraining order on the city's action.
