Man Destroys Ten Commandments Monument 24 Hours After Unveiling

A man yelled “freedom” as he rammed his car into a monument depicting the Ten Commandments outside the Arkansas State Capitol, less than 24 hours after it was unveiled. Michael Tate Reed posted videos to his Facebook page of the collision and his justification for doing so, authorities said. This wasn’t the first time Reed was arrested for destroying a Ten Commandments monument. Reed was also booked in 2014 for vandalizing a Ten Commandments monument in Oklahoma. He apologized the following year and said he suffered mental health issues.
