    Supreme Court allows war cross memorial to stand as symbol of 'sacrifice'

    The Supreme Court on Thursday said a 40-foot, 16-ton Latin cross war memorial in Bladensburg, Maryland, can stand, upholding the constitutionality of a religious symbol on public land, but stopping short of creating a clear new standard for evaluating similar displays nationwide.

    It is good to see rulings like this a 7-2 vote is also a positive.

    Good news. It was built as a memorial.

    How many hours will it be before some outraged Rodent blows it up?

    We the People DID NOT vote in a majority Rodent Congress, they stole it via election fraud.

    Some of those memorialized were no doubt "rodents" as you call them. Show some respect.

    Rodents do not deserve respect, so stuff your fake outrage where nobody can see it.

    How about if you keep you fake ass posting on the topic at hand, pal?

    Oh, and speaking of respect, do tell us of your personal military history and where you got your dolphins.

    I got mine several hundred miles off the coast of California on a mission lobbing Tomahawk cruise missiles at Nevada while under more or less than 400 feet of seawater.

    How about you?

    Now.

    My comment was appropriate to the topic of the thread and a perfectly valid question.

    I restate:

    When will the party of the Rodents, the party of Aunty-Fa, the party of Never Trump, the party of Resist, the Party of baby megadeath, the party of Black Lies Matter, the party of street mobs, the ideological heirs of the Sturm Abteilung, the party of Jim Crow, the party of Tear it Down,...

    ...when will those people decide that blowing up this monument is a fitting course of action?

    You are a terrible spokesman for a cause that deserves better than the likes of you.

    I remember when it was attacked and sent to court. The ADL brought the lawsuit to have it removed. They put out a statement today claiming how disappointed they are at the ruling on their website.
