No More Neon Sign

The neon sign that was added to the display of crosses near the Lafayette BART station was taken down as people thought it was too disrespectful. What, a neon sign not respectful? It's now back to hand-painted signs. Says Jeff Heaton, one of the organizers of the memorial "we'll keep it somber and low-key and quiet."

Heaton does say that the crosses served their purpose and brought attention to the war in light of what Condi Rice called merely an "augmentation." Unfortunately, as we all know, it's George Bush's decision as he's the decider. We hear he likes making decisions. Saying it too.

There doesn't seem to be any resolution to the issue of whether those crosses should be up or not And so, in indecision, they stay.
