Pleasee sign this petition opposing the "Crescent of Embrace" design being developed for the Flight 93 memorial. Despite vague comments by the designer and the Park Service, the design is going forward as yet unchanged.
PETITION: Oppose the "Crescent of Embrace " Proposal for the Flight 93 Memorial
We must, as US citizens oppose this travesty and make our voices heard. If enough of us do so, we will be successful as we were in opposing the Flag Raising Monument in January of 2002 that had been planned for the WTC Flag Raising.
Start your email chains, link to it on your sites, talk it up in the forums you frequent, call your relatives and friends, inform your neighbors.
Thanks so much. Please spread the word. With the internet and email, if even a few hundred of us forward it on, asking our friends and relatives to sign and then forward it on in the same manner...those chains can grow to tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands in a couple of weeks time. That's what it will take here.
Will do, thanks for the ping.
This WAS the sign of the god of the killers.
Honor the killed with the killers symbol?
That's like honoring the Pearl Harbor Vets by putting up a Japanese flag on the top of the Arizona.
Thanks...please forward it on to your entire email list, you friends, relatives and neighbors. We can turn this around as common, every-day citizens...kust like the heroes of Flight 93...if we all get involved and spread the word.
Exactly! Spot on with those comments...you are in the ring, now, fire for effect.
No way.

Climbing, now at 57...hopefully later tonight, and especially tomorrow it will take off. If we get involved and do some forwarding and urging...it can do so.
Oppose and signing now.
Thanks...that's the spirit!
Just got started less than an hour ago. Now past 60. If we all get involved and forward it around to all we know, asking people to sign and forward to as many people as they know...it can grow exponentially.
There's no reason for this as the design was due to the topography of the area, NOT some idea about promoting Muslim beliefs.
GREAT! Thanks...and please forward the petition address or this thread to as many as you know, asking them to sign and do likewise.
Sorry...whatever the reason, the resemblance is clear and not something I favor or will support. Therefore, for me, and others who feel the same way, there is all the reason in the world. It is the way our process works.
Signed. 62 signatures.
Where's the /s tag?
FYI, as we discussed.
In the spirit of this memorial, I propose another 9-11 memorial to be placed within the holiest city of Islam--Mecca.
The proposed memorial will be a stylized cross, to show that 9-11 placed Mecca in the "crossroads" concerning cultural amity and understanding.
Failing that, I would reluctantly support a large statue of Porky Pig drinking a Budweiser...as long as he was giving the one-finger salute.
Cheers!
