Don’t worry they’ll be forced to display Moslem symbols soon.

Move back to the sand and rubble if you don’t like civilization.

Oh silly Italy...what did you think you were signing up for when you joined the EU?
This is future, unless you take back your sovereignty and return to being Italians and not "Europeans"

Italy's education minister condemned the judgment by the European Court of Human Rights, saying that the Christian cross was a symbol of the country's Roman Catholic religion and cultural identity. Silly minister - christian culture doesn't count.

It serves these leaders right..you let the illegals stay..and this is what you get. Are they learning anything? Nope.

Mariastella Gelmini, a member of the conservative government of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, argued that “no one, and certainly not an ideological European court, will succeed in erasing our identity,”
He should have said - OK, now send in your court army and try and enforce it.
Basically what we should say to court ruling and judges here like with the water issues up north.

The court upheld a complaint filed by Soile Lautsi, a Finnish woman who lives in Italy and has Italian citizenship, who complained that her children had to attend a state school in a town near Venice which had crucifixes in every classroom.
Jesus christ. do people really have no other problems...
how stupid you have to be to spend years of batteling in a court (you have to run through all court instances in Italy first bevor it will finally end in the European court “and this usually takes years”)because you don´t like that your child has to look (nobody forces him to look this way) on a cross.

"He should have said - OK, now send in your court army and try and enforce it." As Andrew Jackson once said of our own supreme court...
"They have made their decision, now let them enforce it".

no need to do this. the European court ist the accepted highest instance in Italy and in all other EU countries. so they are forced to accept the ruling (of course they can start an law suit of their own). they would have to leave the EU first to be no longer bound to the ruling of this court. (and this will not happen).

Italians outraged as European court rules against crucifixes Note to Italians: This is why you don't yield your sovereignty to anyone, especially eurotrash organizations dominated by muzzies!

Wow - more of this to come, for sure.
Prediction: The Treaty of Lisbon will plunge European states into civil upheaval before long, as citizens demand that their nations withdraw.
What an atrocious ruling.

well good luck (they would definitely need it) for a state
which really would want to leave the EU (only possible in theory). once in there i don´t see a realistic chance for a state to get out. so as long as the EU doesn´t implode “you” are stuck with it once you entered.

Geez....what happened to “When in Rome”.... ?
I hate liberals who impose their views on everyone.

You know, sometimes I think that we Christians ought to start taking hostages and loping off some heads and posting them on youtube or somewhere and then maybe we would get more respect. Then I wake up.
You don't see courts banning things Muslim much do ya?
