Comment on Ban of Crosses on Utah HwyWHY can a few dictate what all may or may
not do?? You’d have to have lived in outer space all your life to NOT know that a simple cross shape is a symbol
of remembrance for one who died. [In the article: Federal Appeals Court Rules Against Utah Memorial Crosses Along Highway, the monuments were
erected to honor Highway Patrol troopers who lost their lives in the line of duty. “…they
selected crosses for the memorials because the image of a cross can simultaneously convey a message of death, remembrance,
honor, gratitude and sacrifice.”]
If a cross offends you - whether used to commemorate a
person who died, or any other use of the symbol, then LOOK THE OTHER WAY. All kinds of gross, obscene, offensive images are
plentiful on billboards, T-shirts, bumper stickers, magazine covers, TV shows and commercials, in store windows, music videos,
and movie theatres. Why doesn't anyone object and take these morally bankrupt expressions to court?? http://maudeandpoppy.wordpress.com/2010/08/19/court-bans-cross/
Don't let the few dictate what all may do or not do.
