"I agree that the property owners should have been asked if they minded if the cross was put up, BUT I also agree that they should not have pulled it out of the ground. I fell they were just very insensitive to this whole situation. Yes, the Labes may be insensitive to the homeowners by not asking permission, but they are in shock and grieving over the lost of their son. The homeowner could have waited a week or so and then approached the Labe family in regards to the matter. I would hope the cross was returned to the family."
You can't excuse one instance of insensitivity without excusing the other. If the Labes are let off the hook, so should the property owner.
