Cross returning to veterans memorial park inside 'free speech zone'


A Minnesota city that drew backlash after pulling a cross from a veterans memorial park has agreed to bring it back as early as Tuesday -- inside a section of the park that supporters have called a "free speech zone." The name "free speech zone" has stuck, even though the park is public. Under the plan, city leaders would set up a method of considering each proposed display, giving priority to veterans groups, the StarTribune reported. The group reportedly claimed it would submit a proposal for a memorial of its own in the park. The original memorial showed the silhouette of a soldier holding a gun and kneeling in front of a small cross.
