LA HABRA -- Antiwar protesters burned and ripped up flags, flowers and patriotic signs at a Sept. 11 memorial that residents erected on a fence along Whittier Boulevard days after the terrorist attacks in 2001 and have maintained ever since.
However, although officers witnessed the vandalism Saturday afternoon, police did not arrest three people seen damaging the display because they were "exercising the same freedom of speech that the people who put up the flags were,' La Habra Police Capt. John Rees said Monday.
"For this to be vandalism, there had to be an ill-will intent,' he said.

To: nicmarlo
No problem nicmarlo.
I just want everyone to remember, and to all those that want to slam California, that the good people in the Whittier/La Habra area were the ones that put this memorial up on their own accord, taking their time and money to support this and maintain this memorial for the past 18 months, that I am proud of them and others that support this memorial that has now evolved into the national spotlight, on that corner of America.
Good bless America and the people of that area. Never forget 911 and the brutal, massive death that was brought to our shores.

That area where the memorial is would not be a safe place to walk at night. The area is run down and there are gangs around there. La Habra does have nice parts though, I agree.
Not so far away from there as I also mentioned are homes (to the North)where the average price is 1.2 million these days. But as I said, where the memorial is happens to be a run down area/pocket if you will.
There are a ton of illegals housed in addition further south of that area. La Habra in general has far more than their fair share. People do call it "Guada La Habra" these days, especially south of Whittier Blvd.
The North gets nice though, I totally agree.

This is 1 reason why I escaped from California . Another reason is pulling in 1500 a week only to give 52% to the likes of ...... the twit de govenaw .
Now that my back is to the beach It's more personnal than ever . period . No I dont speak spanish and I dont give a shit to learn it .
To: Joe Hadenuf
I drive through that area 3 times a week and am among the 30% of CA who has a RE license and well on the side.
I am not full of anything and you shouldn't take offense either.

I'm not in Florida and I saw the article on the Drudge Report.
I was shocked to find it near by me and I have passed the area many times. It is a beautiful, yet humble memorial.

I was posted that elsewhere as well. If they came from the north, her neighbors will put a hurt on that family for sure.
