Quote:
The Utah Highway Patrol Association defends the crosses, which have the Highway Patrol logo on them and have been erected on government land. It says they are secular symbols that both honor the troopers and remind speeding drivers to slow down.

this goes a bit beyond a quiet little roadside shrine like we see around here. the lies about the crosses being secular symbols because they have police insignia adorning them underlies the hypocrisy so common to religious doctrine, as well.
If the families have paid for the crosses, then fine....if the state has? not so much, i think. is the cross the only symbol they could have used? were any of the officers represented non christian?
