This ruling is a slap in the face to both veterans and voters-seventy-five percent of whom voted to keep Mount Soledad as it is, where it is. This smacks of the worst kind of judicial activism. Judge Cowett already attempted to undermine the preservation of this sacred symbol by forcing a minimum 2/3 supermajority for passage just a few days before the July 26 election
As we predicted, the people rose to the occasion and overwhelmingly approved Proposition A. Now, Judge Cowett wants to change the rules after the game has already been played.
Judge Cowett appears to be anti-American.
When and how do the people get to force these activist judges to step down? Why are they ever given a pass, no matter how far from the Constitution they stray? When do they have to answer to the people and a higher authority?
