Crosses are the symbol of death and the death of those that died protecting our freedoms. Leave this symbol alone.

Please leave Peace Cross standing where it is. It is about love, peace, bravery, and should be considered an historical momument. I am 63 and remember it from when I was a little girl living in Hyattsville. It was and still sjould be a landmark Thank you!

As a Veteran, I think it is reprehensible if we dishonor our fellow Veterans, and the freedoms they fought for, by retroactively taking freedoms away from those Veterans by removing monuments attesting to their valour and convictions.

Please keep this Memorial up and stop taking God and erasing our military history

This is a historic monument it needs to be protected. Until the government is ready to replace every dollar bill and every coin in circulation, no one should be able to remove historic monuments. When that day comes, I will move!!

Please leave this Peace Cross alone. Those men that fought in WW1 can’t defend them selves now. Find a way to make this work. Thanks

LEAVE IT THERE... Believe me it comforts FAR FAR more than it offends... Use personal/private funding for upkeep if that is the issue.

The Memorial Cross does not represent “the establishment” of religion.

I will always think of Bladensburg as my home. That memorial cross was there way before I was born. If removed or torn down would simply be disgraceful. Leave it alone, it means so much to so many who were fortunate to have grown there.

I grew up with this monument. After Vietnam this Sacred Place became a place of rest for peace of mind and reflection. I spent many hours here, contemplating, just to find answers, of life's new problems. Answers wer found and peace was restored. Thanks to the Peace Cross. "Let It Be" s Wounded Warriors' Plee

This is a shame, travesty and disrespectful to the veterans named on the cross, their families and any other patriot that supports this country and all it stands for. I think this judge overstepped his bounds and hope he loses his judgeship.

As a former resident of both Maryland and Washington DC. I find the thought of removing a war memorial outrageous and absurd. Their is.no excuse for this behaviour.
