The Veteran's Memorial Auditorium: There is a dedication to those killed in war, inscribed in marble at the front of the Memorial Auditorium. It reads: "This building is dedicated to those who made the supreme sacrifice in the service of the United States."

This historic and living tribute to our soldiers opened in 1927 on a block donated by Sacramento city founder John Sutter and dedicated to Sacramentans who died in war. An honor roll listing Sacramentans killed in battle from the Spanish American War through Persian Gulf War is housed in a room adjacent to the main lobby. We pray no new names of fellow Sacramentians who will be engaged in Operation Enduring Freedom will be added to this honor roll.of veterans in Sacramento. In fact, as veteran supporters we suggest anti-war protests on these hallowed ground desecrate and insult the men and women of our armed forces this grand building represents. They represent only 10 per cent of the U.S. population and provide media capital to our enemies. That is one thing, their choice of location is another and is an insult to America's heroes, past and present.

The KCRA-3 news item tonight leads: SACRAMENTO -- Not all Americans are supporting the president's war on terrorism. Protests can be seen almost daily at the corner of 16th and J streets in front of the Memorial Auditorium.

Notice: KCRA reported some of the organizers are TEACHERS? What are they telling our kids in the classroom or in our colleges? Will they be turning out flag burners too?

We know what 6th grade teacher Kory Clift does when not resisting arrest in Oakland and at Sac State or being booked for the attempted murder of Sacramento School District remain silent of flag burning teacher.

Yesterday's Sac Bee: By Sandy Louey Bee Staff Writer (Published Oct. 10, 2001) A sixth-grade teacher at North Avenue Elementary School is apparently facing suspension or dismissal for allegedly burning a portion of an American flag in his classroom. Clift made statements such as "I can't burn it all 'cause that's illegal" and "Babylon is burning," and he called the United States the "United Snakes," according to the district.

Now the cover-up - the broken promise of disclosure October 9th.: Superintendent Carl Mark Jr. said Tuesday night that he has made a decision about Clift's disciplinary action, but declined to disclose any details. "The specifics of any action taken so far remains a confidential personnel matter," he said.

Then there's the Bee's praise of Memorial Auditorium protesters and demonizing those who found their presence offensive.: Golden day in capital area clouded by many emotions: Residents encounter private fears and public protests. By Deb Kollars and Silvina Martínez Bee Staff Writers (Published Oct. 8, 2001)

The bombing of Afghanistan may have been half a world away, but it brought an explosion of emotions to the Sacramento region on Sunday. Near Memorial Auditorium, a large man in a burgundy van stopped traffic for three full light changes while he shouted profanities and used his middle finger to condemn a group of people protesting the bombing.

Forget the facts: No mention of the Bee people calling police on protesters nor the police to threaten one with arrest when he kept jumping into the street even after three prior warnings and telling SPD Sgt. Elmo Banning, "Go work somewhere else!"

Well Mr. Anti-war protester... we have a message for you!
