McElroy is engaged in the desecration of graves. It is not as respectable an occupation as coffin stealing, or body parts brokering.

Those aren't "hate messages" ~ simply common, ordinary, fully understandable expressions at the disgust we must all feel in the presence of a human who has elected to become a POS.

McElroy is praying to his god that Republicans stay home on election day in 2006 and 2008.

'Jimmy, what are you doing?'

Jimmeh, I wonder what Christ will say to you.


For you on earth, it's all about money and perverting our Judeo Christian based laws. What a legacy of shame you live.

Yup, it's a big joke - as long as he gets his $$$$.

Sold his soul to the devil for $$$$$

Matt.16:26

[26] For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Mark.8:36

[36] For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

What a loaded article.

Makes it sound like anyone opposed to federal-government -mandated tearing down of crosses is a psychologically skewed, violent, hatemongering white supremacist.

. . . filed a lawsuit saying the existence of the large, mountaintop cross on city property violated the principle of separation of church and state.

There is no such principle, constitutional or otherwise. Here is just another untouchable blackrobe substituting his will for that of the people.

In short, the judge is just another fascist who escaped the outcome of WWII.

“My view of it is, if they're really getting mad, I must be doing something right.”

Mr. Lawyer wants us all to shut up and do what were told. The new religion is the law.

This case is not over. Without saying anything that is not set in stone as yet, a legal charity I've worked with and for, for seven years, has volunteered to take the appeal without fee on behalf of San Diego, all the way to the Supreme Court.

The City Council will vote on 23 May whether to accept our offer to represent them. I believe the Council will accept that offer by a one-vote margin.

Our assumption is that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals will, as usual, decide the case the wrong way, so the planning is for it to go to the Supreme Court. This time, the Court will almost certainly take the case. (For those not familiar with SC procedures, it takes only four Justices to agree to take a case. Justices Thomas, Scalia, and Alito, and Chief Justice Roberts should vote to take this case.)

I am already, with pleasure and diligence, working on the briefs for this appeal. I do not condone violent threats against anyone. However, this lawyer is a sworn enemy of the Constitution of the United States, and my goal is not only to defeat his legal position but to cut off his efforts to get more taxpayers' money awarded by this judge who also does not respect the Constitution.

One last comment about the article. In an effort to make this guy seem human and likeable, the article does not mention his hard-wired connection to the ACLU. I wonder why? Could it be press bias?

P.S. My primary is over, but because of certain legal and ethical problems, the incumbent, Charles Taylor may withdraw/be forced out, and I am in the running to be chosen as the replacement nominee for Congress in the 11th District of NC. For more information, see the article below, and my website. I still need your help.

We had our cross debacle here in San Francisco about 10 years ago.

The Armenian Orthodox Church ended up buying the city land where the cross stands. They now are the caretakers of the huge concrete cross.

Better do something now.
It only gets worse. Tese Jesus-haters, athiests and secularists have lots of money, power, "voice" and passion about their hatred of all things Christian.

By the way, the Christmas creche has long disappeared from public property but the Menorah still adorns public property at Christmas.
"Shiva's linga" (That would be penis.) still stands. [Side note: some Hinuds thought that a fancy stone parking barrier in Golden Gate park looked like Shiva's penis and DEMANDED that the city protect it. The city did/does. It's become a quasi-altar/shrine. Harhar. The park gardeners have a chuckle at that, since they put them up.]

It's the Jesus-haters who are to be feared, for they ADORE all other religions. They just hate/fear Jesus.

The city already has paid him $100,000, a judge has ordered the city to pay him an additional $280,000, and McElroy intends to bill the city for a large sum – “well into the six figures” – on top of that.

Note how the article lumps in his efforts to censor the cross along with his litigation against white supremacists.

Ok, so why doesn't the city just lease the land to someone for $1 a year with provisions that the city will continue to maintain the grounds and any improvements on it (the cross) but that no other improvements may be made on the land?

I think the judge involved in the case has stacked the deck against the city. That's why it needs to get to the Supreme Court. At some point, governments are going to start ignoring court orders. Judges whine about how respect for the judiciary has gone down, and they don't realize they have noone to blame but themselves.

Using the law to censure those who might criticize you, your lifestyle or etc., is tempting enough; but, to then have the taxpayer fund it! What page of the Anarchist Play Book is that on? Turning the laws of a society against the society itself... Wow, "Classic".


An Agnostic I am, but I recognize this site as culturally significant art. Also, I'm thankful to the beautifully faithful people that recognize a higher authority than Man. I can't imagine another group giving of themselves so selflessly.
