Letter to an obnoxious man

[CrAz3D]

So this guy, Paul Weinbaum, has been suing our city and school system because we use 3 crosses on emblems.
Our city is named Las Cruces (the crosses).
Most of the people in our city like the emblem & don't care for Weinbaum's lawsuits, I am one of those person's that like the emblem.

I've written a letter/email to him, would y'all be so kind as to proof read/make suggestions on it?  Thanks in advance

In regards to law suit you have filed concerning our city emblem, why continue this?  Do you believe it is possible to remove all religious symbols and names from our government agencies?

I agree with what the Sun-News has found to be the majority opinion of Las Crucens, the crosses ought to stay.  Your cause is taking money away from more important matters.  I'm sure we'd all rather have potholes fixed, streets a little cleaner, and other things like that.  I agree, the crosses are a religious symbol, but I do not see Las Cruces as a city sponsoring Christianity.  Can you honestly tell me that Las Cruces, as a whole community, would be better off with out 3 simple crosses on our logo?  If you believe so, please answer me this, ought we change the names of Los Angeles, San Jose, San Francisco, and even New Mexico?  As I read Mexico is named after Mexitli, the Aztec God of War, that could make people think we are the new followers of this Aztec God, should we be instilling the Aztec religion into our society?

editted to add new letter & remove old so people just see the new

That guy's stupid, if your citys motto was "In god we trust" or something like that I wouldn't like it, but just because of crosses?  :-\

Nice flame letter.  :)

I can see where you're coming from, and as long as you wouldn't make a big deal about it, I don't think it would matter at all.

hmm, I rewrote my letter to come across less obnoxious (as my dad pointed out), oops?

I like my point about renaming LA & even New Mexico, I think it makes a good impact

Clean up a park in the city, pick up trash, read to kids at the library, get kids involved at the library, being involved in pointless lawsuits helps no one.

Clean up the park in the city, pick up trash, read to kids at the library, or get kids involved at the library, instead of being involved in pointless lawsuits which help noone.
