What is the demographics of Davenport that they have their own civil rights commission? Why do they have one? What can this organization do to the town if they level charges of racism at it? Also, if race is the primary bugaboo, this becomes even more confusing. By race I presume you mean black people. Aren’t the majority of American blacks associated with the Christian faith, at least nominally? It makes no sense that a black watch dog group would be offended at the name of a holiday they observe. Are there other races in Davenport? Arabs? Curious to know.

About 10% of Davenport’s population is black, and about 6% (probably higher now) is Hispanic.

The Davenport CRC is a priveledged, protected organization that pretty much gets what it wants, mainly because the city council is gutless and afraid to confront them on the issues.

Yes, a substantial number of blacks there call themselves Christian, but they are dyed-in-the-wool liberals first who toe the line when it comes to liberal PC doctrine, even if it’s an attack on a Christian holiday.
