Atheist Assault on 93-Year-Old World War I Memorial Checked By Supreme Court
By Tyler O'Neil November 2, 2018


On Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court announced it would hear the case surrounding the Peace Cross in Bladensburg, Md. The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Bladensburg cross, a memorial to veterans who gave their last full measure of devotion in World War I, violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. The Court's decision to reconsider the case gives the cross a new lease on life.

"Our opponents want to erase the memory of these fallen servicemen from Prince George's County," Jeremy Dys, deputy general counsel at First Liberty Institute, told PJ Media. First Liberty, along with Jones Day, are representing The American Legion in the case, which is known as The American Legion v. American Humanist Association.
