I realize your point is the criminalization of Christmas...
You forgot the popular “I’ll KILL you!” that became VERY unpopular after Columbine. Except they forgot to tell the kids IMMEDIATELY that they couldn’t say that. If I had a nickle for every time my 4 older brothers said that to me in the 60’s...
Or the number of times I told one of my three sisters the same...lol.
Just an FYI, in my school district, Merry Christmas is freely said at Christmas time.
Yes, it’s not nearly as bad as saying “Jesus Loves You”.
One of my two kids had the misfortune to utter those words the week after the tragedy. 3 day suspension in a CATHOLIC school... I was LIVID!
