So far, I don’t think he’s been successful. At least in this case, the Mayor doesn’t panic and immediately surrender, like that Naval Base did the other day, taking the Nativity Scene down because of a few career complainers.
So, if 2 or 3 people complain, they take that as a threat and remove the nativity? What if 50 or so complained that they were offended because it was removed? What is the outcome of that scenario if those of the larger group want it to remain?
I sometimes think Americans are just too passive and let these things get past them without being aware that they, too, have a voice and need to fight back! (verbally, of course).
