Damn the ACLU, just damn them.

Can we put a tarp over -9bama? I mean, just until the US Supreme court determines that he is eligible to be president, of course.

When they ignore,”...the free exercise thereof...”.
When they ignore, “...shall not be infringed.”.
Their time is up.

>>Damn the ACLU, just damn them.

I’m fairly certain that they already are.

The U.S. Park Service was forced to cover the cross until the Supreme Court decides whether the cross can remain in its place as a monument to fallen soldiers during World War I, or whether it must come down because its presence violates the Constitution.

Because the Constitution says: "Congress shall stamp out all religious expression in public".

Oh wait, it doesn't.

[Hodar]

I fail to see how this impinges upon the Constitution. A cross neither establishes a Govermental religion, and the Gov’t insisting upon the removal of this landmark certainly falls under the ‘preventing the free exercise thereof’.

[SandWMan]

I fully expect the court to rule that the cross should come down, but not because of “separation of church and state”, which they will assiduously avoid (hey, I think that’s the first time I ever actually used that word!).

I imagine that they will say that the veterans who put up the cross (in 1934, I believe) had no permission to do so, and so it should never have been there in the first place.

Folks, how long are we going to endure our oppressive Government?

[unixfox]

Funny, we never heard anything from the ACLU when Xlinton took 2 sticks and formed a cross on the beach!

THAT OFFENDED ME!

[OldNavyVet]

A cross on church property is okay, but allowing a cross display on public property is “respecting an establishment of religion” and a violation ot the First Amendment.

[kjo]

Jesus said there would come a time when the Word would be hidden...people too ashamed of their own actions to confront the Truth of the cross. Go ahead...cover it, or tear it down.

Soon the government will be coming after Christians. There are already courts in Canada when people of religious beliefs are confronted by government bureaucrats and forced to recant their public religious views...or face fines or imprisonment.

It is just a matter of a few years...it will be so here too

[FlingWingFlyer]

This is the aCLU displaying its hatred of Christians and God. It is the Mother of all Hate Crimes. These piggies were offered a piece of land five times bigger in size for this one little piece of land. That wasn’t good enough for the Christian haters. They want God and all Christians gone. They are not compatible with the aCLU’s perverted, communist lifestyle.

[Carley]

Maybe we can claim it isn’t a cross-cross.

[philled]

I'm hoping I can get the ACLU to help me. You see, there are two keys on my keyboard that have little crosses on them. One is beside the "Backspace" key and the other is above the "Enter" key on the number pad. These keys offend me and lots of government employees have similar keyboards. Thus, the government is promoting Christianity through its choice of computer equipment. This must stop!!

OK, so is my hypothetical case stronger or weaker than the "offended" malcontent that dislikes an old memorial in the desert? Maybe it isn't a cross but a "plus" sign and they are indicating "VETERANS +1" as a show of support. I can only hope they just call the complaintant an idiot and bill him for wasting years of everyone's time.

Deep in the heart of the Mojave National Preserve in California stands a five foot cross carefully disguised in a plywood box. The U.S. Park Service was forced to cover the cross until the Supreme Court decides whether the cross can remain in its place as a monument to fallen soldiers during World War I, or whether it must come down because its presence violates the Constitution.

[World'sGoneInsane]

Before you know it, they are going to ban t's from the alphabet.

The fact that there was an injunction against the land swap that would have put this historical monument on private land, shows this to be pure harassment.

[Chode]

the aclu seems kinda like a self funded acorn

[bustinchops]

This case and others like it are just surreal.

This just cannot be my country anymore.

Damn all lawyers, especially the ACLU.

When, how, where......do we stand up and reject this? When how and where can we make a stand against what’s happening in every niche of life? My God, this country is dying.
