Why is this an Issue? Why is it not appropriate and Why CAN'T it be the focal point of the park, if that's really the only problem? I think not but whatever...

"All the vets I talked to (after the meeting) are furious," he said. "People who gave me money are furious. Everyone's thinking the same thing we're thinking: We didn't win the war by throwing sticks and stones."
"It's the ultimate sacrifice," Hall added. "Somebody gave their life to protect and serve this country and they should be remembered. They should never be forgotten."

I am really getting frustrated. I've just come to the conclusion... We can not please anyone. We will always find a person whose life is so miserable and boring that they have to make it rough for the rest of us. That's the real problem. Tired of the whiney babies. Jesus!!

The ugly truth is that there are people in this country that hate everything that it stands for. It does not matter what you do they will find some way to throw a turd in the punch bowl. The only thing that makes them happy is when they are getting something for free from the American tax payer.

They get satisfaction from denying others freedom of expression and speech based on the liberal doctrine of tolerance and diversity. The funny thing about that doctrine is that if you are not a member of a special interest group it does not apply to you. In fact if you are not one of them they are the antithesis of what they stand for. They are bigoted, intolerant, and even sexist.
