Mojave Cross torn down by vandals

The 76-year-old Mojave Cross war memorial in San Bernardino County's High Desert has been torn down by vandals, just days after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the religious symbol could remain -- at least temporarily -- on public land.

Sometime Sunday night, the cross was taken down from its perch atop Sunrise Rock in the Mojave National Preserve, according to Liberty Institute, a group that represented veterans groups and caretakers of the cross in the recent Supreme Court Case.

"This is an outrage, akin to desecrating people's graves," said institute president Kelly Shackelford. "It's a disgraceful attack on the selfless sacrifice of our veterans. We will not rest until this memorial is re-installed."

How can they live with themselves?
 
They don't want to live; they're nihilists - they want to die.
 
They are infatuated with Death.
 
Death consumes them.
 
Death defines them.
 
Death is them.
 
The sooner you realize this, the better.
 
Then you don't have to waste any more time scratching your head, furrowing your brow, and wondering, "WTF?!?"

A good security guard should do the trick...

I don't know if I can trust them these days. When Obama orders spec ops to monitor Tea Parties - and they obey - I don't feel as safe here as I used to.

>> IS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION???

We are, and that, I suspect, is one of the reasons Obama is criticizing the abundance of information available on talk radio, iPods, the internet.

Leftism, a dangerous, very dangerous state.

For Leftism to achieve its goal of Communism, it must be equally if not more insidious in order to break our Liberties and Traditions.

The park service isn’t going to pay to rebuild it, you can bet on that.

True.

And one to put up another cross. Or better yet, 100 crosses. For every cross that is taken down, we put up 100 more in its place.

When the ACLU shows up to demand that this be treated as a hate crime, I’ll finally be convinced that pigs can fly.

Lefties/DIMs/LIBs are subhuman destroyers of life. They all make me sick.

it was just a matter of time....

[SZonian]

It was mentioned on KFI640 this morning. They’re a pretty big SoCal radio station and their announcing this should give this story some momentum.

The cross on private land was stolen, and is probably in a scrap yard.

It’ll probably be alleged that some “poor” person stole it to recycle it so he could pay his mortgage payment. /s

Make it visible from space!! lol

Like in the New Orleans beat down.

When the leftists ignore a story, it goes away and never happened, don't ya know?

[NormsRevenge]

I could be wrong but I don’t think Kagan ever actually argued a case in front of the Supreme Court in her short stay.. thought I hear that on Levin or Rush yesterday.. altho if she had to pick a side on a couple, if past performance is a reasonable indicator, she tossed military recruiters off her campus..

She argued the Citizens United case apparently, arguing the Prez has the power to ban books, films, downloads etc that are “feloniously political”.
