Wow this is big news. I was just joking with Mr. Z the other day about a big cemetery in Irvine. 

However if it's a Veteran's Cemetery it's not as bad as a regular one.  Used to live right next to the National Veterans Cemetery in LA for a couple years, it wasn't bad.  Most people are very respectful of the property and it always got cleaned and decked out for 4th of July and Veteran's Day.  I saw no wondering ghosts either.

Why would you protest?  This is a cemetery and memorial for ppl that have served and fought for our country.  The great park is huge.  I think it's a nice gesture to our armed forces.

I don't think the fact that it's a Veteran's cemetery will keep people from protesting.

People just don't like cemeteries, whether it be because of fear of Casper (or Sgt. Casper), increased traffic in the surrounding area, perception of decreasing real estate value, etc etc.

You have to be honest, would you live next to a cemetery... even a Veteran's one... paying Irvine prices?

If I knew there will be any cemetery (including Veterans), I will NEVER purchase the house.  If you dont mind Veterans cemetery, I will gladly sell my house to you.

Well that's the point. Will it be "next to" PP?  No. I mean heck I hate the giant orange balloon at the great park but honestly that thing is probably closer to other irvine developments than PP.

Distance is relative... even if it was on the opposite side of GP at the furthest corner from PP, people will protest.

Is the Musick Jail "next to" PP? Not really... but it comes up in the discussion.

Most people don't think the Great Balloon is haunted unless your are Charlie Brown.

This is a direct clash of cultures.  Americans have a long tradition of honoring veterans and soldiers.  This is not true in many Asian cultures.  Most Asian cultures see soldiers as "necessary" but not honor-worthy.  Several Asian countries have mandatory service (i.e. S.K, Taiwan, and Singapore) that a lot of people actually dislike because it takes 2 years away from prime academic learning time.   

On the other hand, many Asian cultures have visceral aversion to cemetery and it would greatly diminish home values having to live next to one.

Actually, Linus is the one who believes in the Great Pumpkin.

You hate the crown jewel of GP? 
That's like saying you hate orange bicycles.  #sacrelig
