Judge bans Christian cross from Los Angeles County seal
From the really ironic and kinda funny Friday news desk.
This comes from Los Angeles County "The Angels, City of Angels"
Thursday's decision, following a two-year legal battle, was handed down by US District Judge Christina Snyder, who said that including the religious emblem in the government symbol "places the county's power, prestige and purse behind a single religion, Christianity."
The case erupted in 2014 when the county had the cross drawn on top of the San Gabriel Mission which appears in the logo.
The move reversed a decision by officials a decade earlier to remove the cross from the seal, amid threats of legal action by various groups opposing the inclusion of the crucifix on the county symbol.
The LA county seal appears on flags and official stationery and government buildings across Los Angeles County.
Supporters of keeping the cross on the mission in the seal said it is a historically accurate symbol, given California's early settlement by Franciscan missionaries from Spain.

San Diego is named after a Catholic Saint, so is San Francisco.

In a fully expected move, the City Council next approved renaming Los Angeles to Los Angles.
Just to be safe.

Has to be hundreds of US cities named San or Saint, referring to Catholic Saints.

It should change its name to Los Pendejos.
