How cold and unfeeling do you have to be to even bring such a suit to court? The names of some of the ungrateful culprits follow. Heaven protect us and our nation from little men such as these.

Plaintiffs Stephen Clark, Michael Rivers and Richard Andrews in conjunction with the American Atheists Inc. also seek to have the UHP symbol removed from the crosses.
"The presence of the UHP logo on a poignant religious symbol is an unconstitutional violation of the United States Constitution. It is government endorsement of religion," said Rivers, Utah director for American Atheists.
