Geez, it sounds like the nut cases in Boulder have escaped, and invaded Fort Collins.
Call them Kwanza lights and watch their heads explode from their brain contortions.
Why no, Mr. Taskforce Officer. I’m not celebrating Christmas, that’s our family tree and those red and green chili pepper lights are in support of illegal aliens.

That’s racist.
Red and Green are the colors of the Mexican flag.

These people have nothing better to do????? Typical example of why our government, in general, isn’t working. The people in Fort Collins need to get rid of these people and find some that actually do the peoples business for a change. I’m sure that if they look around, there should be something they could be doing of more value.
Just tell them that your are celebrating Festivus.
I forgot the link to the public info above....

If they add gold lights (to the red and green) they cover Kwanzaa; add blue and white you got Chanukah covered. But wait, isn’t that a STRING OF MULTI-COLORED LIGHTS?!?!?!?!?

Maybe I should file a complaint that I am offended by traffic lights (except for the yellow one in the middle).

Is this for real?
Actually - I’m finding myself liking the idea of turning Christmas back into a religious holiday for those of us that celebrate Christ’s birthday.
I’d like to see people have to go to work on Christmas. I’d like to see stores not decorate or advertise for Christmas shoppers & just have business as usual. I’d like to see people gather with their families and go to a church service for Christmas and stop spending the obscene amounts of money for gifts none of us need with merchants that don’t want to say the word “Christmas”, but want us to spend our “Christmas” money with them.
I’d like to see an end to the commercialism of the holiday and let it get back to what it really is supposed to be.
Christians really need to “go on strike” for Christmas & let the merchants and everyone else see that they need to be careful what they wish for.
So what are they going to do with the traffic lights ?
Isn’t white lights racist? How come no black lights.
I guess that the City Council in Ft. Collins is concerned that too many of their citizens will be confused by the red and green lights and think they are traffic signals.

Don’t get me started. The Ft. Collins city council has apparently failed to notice that Christmas is being reclaimed by ordinary Americans who reject the whole “Holiday Tree” and “Happy Holidays” nonsense.
The reason for the season is CHRISTMAS!! Deal with it or go away.
It always comes back in favor of whitey.
Cracker please!!
Brother wants to see some black lights.
Should the Fort Collins city council approve this nonsense, the best thing residents could do would be to boycott the local merchants during the Christmas season. The loss of sales tax revenue would be devastating to the city, and angry merchants may quickly tell the ACLU and the diversity and sensitivity types to sit down and shut up.
