We are talking 1945 here when these icons were put on top of mountains in San Diego...

We are not talking about 2 years ago, Iraq War...

Yes, things change. But buildings do not change unless there is a catastrophe.

The folks the put these icons up are no longer living and only their children speak for them.

However, to discount their efforts of keeping a part of history on PRIVATE LAND that was VOTED ON BY THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE--I.E. DEMOCRACY IN ACTION--means your freedom is called into question...

Hey, I know too many folks fighting in Iraq for my rights. Some have died there too. No matter what their beliefs are, they are changed. And it is just foul to neglect their chances to obtain some well deserved respect regardless of whether or not we think this war is right or wrong...

Most of these KIDS that become MEN AND WOMEN will be coming back with many problems, at least we can give them some solace to go to a park and settle their beliefs at a location they feel respects them...

You take away a soldier's rights... Then you have a bunch of mercenaries that are loose cannons in public... They can shoot rifles, well you know... Many are excellent marksmen and women... Most are tank drivers on convoy... Good luck with that right taking from service personnel...
