NYC athiests want to desecrate memory of 9-11 victims

The New York Daily News (via The Blaze) reports a very angering story of a group of athiests who are protesting a street sign named for victims that bears the name 7 in Heaven. Families of the victims are rightfully outraged at what this group wants to sue for:
The Manhattan-based NYC Atheists are demanding the city change the name of a Brooklyn block christened "Seven in Heaven Way" in honor of seven area firefighters killed in the Sept.11 attacks.

"We weren't even able to recover my brother's remains. These little things like a sign is all we have left," said Gullickson, 44, referring to his brother Joseph. "How dare these people try to take it away from us."

"He didn't go in there that day and ask people what their religion [was] or whether they believed in God. He just went to save people," Gullickson added.

"It's disgusting and horrible," said Catherine O'Mara, 71, whose son-in-law Brian Cannizzaro is honored on the sign. "This means everything to the women who lost their husbands."
And what the group of atheists are doing is offensive to the victims' memory, to say nothing of being just what the jihadists who committed the obscenity would want to see happen. The families of the victims should file a countersuit against the group.
