Utah’s Cross Controversy
Utah’s Cross Controversy
The crosses honor troopers who have died since 1931. Ten of the monuments are on public land, which required special permission from the state. "It was never our intent to do anything religious," says Lt. Lee Perry, who helped spearhead the project. "It was strictly to honor their memory." picked by dollyllama 2 years ago

Instead of telling the world what we cannot put up, how about this group tell us what we can put up that won't offend anyone and we do that. Do we have to poll everyone to ask if they will be offended by something? This isn't meant to be offensive to any specific group and shouldn't be construed as such.

No guys, it's the SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE. Period.

You CANNOT have a cross on public land. I get what it means, and I respect that, BUT it's not okay based on our Constitution, and I think that's a GOOD thing.

I get it and I respect those that are being honored, but it simply can't be done this way. It's not about trying not to offend x group or y committee, it's about following one of the most crucial aspects of our FREE country. Religion is NOT a part of our government, it shouldn't be and hopefully it never will be.

Celebrate religion on your own time, it has no place on public land simply because we as a nation must ever strive to be more tolerant and secular in our governmental dealings.

You want to a build a cross to honor someone? That's fine, but you HAVE to do it on private land.
