Wow, I just moved to Las Cruces (grew up near there) . . .

Do the crosses appear on logos painted onto emergency response vehicles, like police cars, fire trucks, ambulances?

If so, do you suppose Weinbaum and Boyd would object when one is dispatched to their homes to save lives or property?

Is using the vehicles with the offending logos an expression of religious preference by the city?  Does it discriminate against their ability to dial 9-1-1?

Yes, they (the crosses) are on a lot of municipal property. I am sure that they are offended that the symbol is anywhere on city property, that is their whole case, they are trying to bring up the whole seperation of church and state by mis-reading the first ammendment. By the way, there are many places in NM that have crosses in public places, including a mountian where there was a battle between Mexican settlers of Tularosa and Mescelaro Apachee tribesmen, visible from the highway. I wonder when someone will be screaming to have that taken down.
