SAN DIEGO (AP) — A federal appeals court has ruled that a San Diego war memorial cross in a public park is unconstitutional.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued the 3-0 decision Tuesday in a two-decade dispute over the cross at Mount Soledad.
In its decision, the court says the cross conveys a message of government endorsement of religion that violates the Constitution.
The court, however, says its decision does not mean that no cross can be part of the memorial. It says modifications can be made to make it constitutional but does not specify what they would be.

Absolutely disgusting. What could be inferred from this cross? Does it mean the government is forcing religion on us, or even, as the article says, endorsing religion? We/the courts have gone off of the deep end. But it is the 9th, so probably be reversed by a higher court.
