By this standard the Reagan funeral was unconstitutional and should have been stopped. Wonder why the ACLU did not try....
Meaning the Ninth Circuit?
It occurs to me that not only are the opposers of the cross ANTI-christs, that they are trying to engage in actions that will put fear into Christians.
When I read the book of Acts in the Bible I see numerous references to people being in ".. fear of the jews...".
Since they are always concerned about anti-semitism why do they insist on riling up trouble ?
When will these 'justices' learn what the clause in the First really means? State created religion is what is prohibited, not already established religions!!! And the word endorsment appears not at all in said Amendment. So where in God's green earth do they get THAT bit of nonsense?! The government can't create its own religion. Not that the government can't recognize religion in any form!
Who was being forced to pray in front of the cross in the Mojave Federal Preserve?
Our public lands are filled with cows.
Failure to ban those cows while banning a single cross certainly sends a message to the rest of us, eh?!
Gee, when will the ACLU take note of the hundreds of white crosses on Santa Monica Pier (not private land).
Those crosses are okay because they are being used as a display of the mounting losses of lives in Iraq by the "Veterans for Peace"?
It was shown on local news and they have a loudspeaker set up and read off the names of each lost soldier every hour. A reporter asked a man there about whether he thought the war was justified.....reply "it's about oil."
Are they doing a google search for crosses only? Next I can't wear one on my necklace....crimeny...
From long experience with the ACLU's write-ups, I know they tend to fudge the facts, both in their legal pleadings and in their press releases and related articles. I am fairly certain that this cross is located on private property, not public property. And that makes a critical difference in legal analysis -- except to the Ninth Circus.

Obviously, the "courts" cannot read the Amendment I of the U.s. Constituttion.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"
The Nine Circus ruling was to be expected. This is the court that two years ago declared the phrase "under God" in the Pledge Of Allegiance to be unconstitutional. More than ever, rulings like this one underscore the need to restrain the activism of liberal judges.
Do those BAstards in the American Communist Liberation Union ever sleep?! They won't quit until a leader with some guts stands up to them and the judicial sympathisers.
