Protests Erupt After Nativity Scene Banned From Public Park
Description:The Santa Monica Nativity Scenes Committee said it will appeal a ruling dismissing a lawsuit that challenged Santa Monica's ban on Nativity and other seasonal displays in public squares.
As expected, U.S. District Judge Audrey B. Collins on Thursday dismissed the lawsuit filed by the church coalition over the Santa Monica City Council's ban, which prohibits private, unattended displays in city parks.(2:03)
