Seriously? Do people have nothing else to do?

ok backstory…

The Mojave Cross is a memorial that was created in 1934, put there by the Veterans of Foreign Wars as a memorial to World War I dead. It was originally made out of wood, but is now currently made out of painted metal. It was situated in public land until about 1994, it then became part of the 1.6 million acres known as the Mojave Land Preserve. In 1999 some Douchey Mc Douche named Frank Buono from the ALCU decided that his life wasn’t already worthless enough, and decided to complain. His complaint is that the cross is a symbol of Christians, and as a war memorial it wasn’t equal rights because not all people who went to war were Christian.

So they want the cross removed. Who f-ing cares? I mean seriously. Its a cross in the middle of the desert, that serves as a reminder to some people who went to war and sacrificed their lives for our country.  Its not about religion, it was about freedom. Who cares if there was a Jew, a Muslim, or any other religion. They fought not for any of those things, they fought for our freedom.

Just leave it, its not hurting anyone, if it is get over it. Its not like my neighbors wind chimes that offend my Audiology, make me want to call the ACLU. They are just wind chimes.

So let me get this right. Were broke, the economy sucks, natural disasters everywhere, war, and all the other crap going on in this country, we are complaining about a cross in the middle of the fucking desert.

I’m going to build a super high tech, crazy fast rocket engine, build me a space ship, and find me planet Common Sense.

So this super douche Frank, who used to work for the park service by the way, and is now retired and hates his pension, decides its a great idea to sue the government.  He took it to court, won, and they ordered it removed. In 2003 the Congress ($$$$$) decided to move land private. So now the big bad SUPREME COURT steps in and eventually refused to order the removal of a congressionally endorsed war memorial cross by a vote of 5 to 4.

I just don’t see the point, leave it be. Its called preserving history. If there was a penis carved in cement for 75 years on my front porch. I’d leave it. History is our lives, its how the world changed, and it changes by people, nature, moments, and things that actually matter like how we take care of the present.

Anyway the Supreme Court judges all made speeches on their person opinion. Which I think is very fair, at least we know they are still people. One particular Judge I found spot on. His name, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, and he said:

“A Latin cross is not merely a reaffirmation of Christian beliefs. It is a symbol often used to honor and respect those whose heroic acts, notable contributions and patient striving help secure an honored place in history for this nation and its people”

Lets just stop wasting time on political correctness and focus on real issues.
