This seriously makes me sick, and angry at the same time. I went to school with one of these kids, he was a year ahead of me, but at a 400 person high school everyone knew eachother. I mean, this is absolutely ridiculous. These kid's parents and friends have been through enough. One of the kid's parents still cried at my graduation in June when they presented the scholarship in his honor.

:no: :shame: :embarassed: :furious3:

I agree with you wholeheartedly, but I think this ought to be in the backroom.

Could Beirut or BKS move this?

[Celtic_Guardian]

No problem, i dont really know the difference between the two yet......

[Somebody Else]

So... uh... if I make a complaint about Manchester, will they get rid of that too?

[Celtic_Guardian]

Maybe they will complain about the bench the class of 2005 put in front of my school, it COULD theoretically, be bumped into at night and then you could fall onto the bricks of the front plaza of the school and crack your head open.

[Beirut]

Moved.

[Don Corleone]

Well, with all due respect, the answer is right here...


The flowers, stuffed animals and holiday flags near the School Street exit sign were surrounded by a set of handmade crosses - works etched by classmates of Patrick Murphy, 17, of Danvers, and Michael Heitz, 16, of Beverly, who were both killed by a drunken driver going the wrong way on Jan. 9, 2004.

Nobody should have ever dared post a cross on a public highway. I don't care how many people died, a cross has no business in public, crosses offend people! No crosses at the 9/11 memorial, and no crosses in Manchester, damn it! I'm sorry for the loss of your friends, but really... whoever built that shrine should know better... put up a picture of Jessica Simpson, Howard Dean and just shut up and go along.

I have family in that area

Don Corleone, reelly not the place for sarcasm. This is why most governments make me sick, but the redeeming thing s you can now protest as opposed to being killed for protesting, go use your rite to free speech!

Its just a safety and planning permission issue , there are about 15 memorials within a mile of my house , no problem at all .
Then there was the tragic case about 2 months ago where the mother of a RTA victim was killed while praying at a unofficial memorial at the spot where her daughter was killed , it's a blind bend with no verge or hard shoulder , not exactly the best place to be kneeling in the road . The solution , erect a shrine on the opposite side of the road where there is a hard shoulder and verge , but now it is a memorial for 2 instead of 1 .

1 complaint? :inquisitive:
