Is their motivation to avoid a Christmas Parade attack
like Waukesha experienced in 2021?
Nope.
Christians.
Probably.
Drop Christmas as a paid holiday for Federal and State employees. Stop shitting on our holy day.
Then it looks like we will have to exclude you ... 8-)
In my youth ... no one cared what someone else wanted to put up ... santa clause or baby Jesus ... menorahs or candy canes.
Or nothing.
Everyone just had a good time with it.
So who are the haters ... who are the ones who are so offended by someones choice?
Why have the haters been given control?
Why do we bend to the will of a few sour people?
I say let it roll ... if someone is “offended” it's on them , in their heart.
And anyone who tries to use their position to bully others should be sued into the dust.
And yes ... I am offended by them.
I say we hang Weis up as decorations. ;)
The reason for my post is that choosing to ban red and green because they are perceived as non-inclusive religious colors is absurd. They’re just traditional, non-scriptural colors based on how people decorated for winter observances, be they Christian or pagan. Evergreen foliage such as holly was what was colorful, available and free at that time of year in northern Europe, the origin for many of our Christmas decorating traditions.
They want to celebrate Christmas the way it’s celebrated in Oceania.
