As one of FR’s admitted atheists, I think this ruling is pure BS. The cross should stand.

The left has nothing better to do with their lives than to end all commonsense, everywhere.

Heck, rule the name Mount Soledad unconstitutional. It refers to Nuestra Senora de la Soledad, a Spanish devotion to the Virgin. It means Our Lady of Loneliness or Solitude, and refers to Mary after the death of her Son.

Change the name of the city too. Naming cities after saints, the nerve.

Judges on the panel are Pregerson (Carter appointee), McKeown (Clinton) and Paez (Clinton).

I'm trying to understand your sentence: what does 'must of' mean?

Isn’t the name San Diego unconstitutional?

Can we erect a monument to the 9th Circuit in the shape of a urinal topped by a pentagram?

This is cross at a public park is unconstitutional, but a picture making fun of the crusifixion at the Smithsonian Institute isn’t. Where was the ACLU on the Smithsonian Institute travesty? Is it just me, or do others also see an inconsistancy in how this separation of church and state is applied?

The Constitution is being destroyed. Many judges are some of the most effective agents of destruction. If we don't get back to being a Constitutional Republic as originally intended, the vile atheist/leftist tyranny will destroy what little is left of the freedoms enumerated to us in the Bill of Rights.

The left hates God and all religious expression but loves blasphemy, offense, and perversion. That is who they are.

Around where I live, on top of the mountains there is a giant cross. I can see it from my house. I am surprised no one has complained about that. But then again, I don’t live in a liberal area; just old conservative democrats that haven’t realized that the present day democratic party is nothing but a bunch of socialist commies.
