QUESTION Somersworth atheist raises flag next to Ten Commandments monument

SOMERSWORTH — A Somersworth atheist took his turn at Citizens Place on Tuesday, raising a blue flag with a red “A” on it next to the Ten Commandments monument on city property.

Richard Gagnon, a member of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, had asked that the flag be raised in December, but agreed to have it fly in January — Diversity and Tolerance Month in Somersworth.
