I guess getting coal is not such a bad thing after all. It beats having your limbs torn off and then eaten by a Krampus.

I never heard of Krampus, but apparently this Demon is as every part of Christmas in Austria as Rudolf is here in North America. The Travel didn't get away with trying to introduce this belief to America.

Video of the cartoon and the shocking Krampus parade are on the Blaze link.

Another reason not to like Anthony Bourdain. I actually liked his travel shows for the first several times I watched. Then they became increasingly Anti-American and highly repetative with his “jokes”...How many times can I watch a guy dump on the USA while traveling into a third world Country? I’m done with the Snobby Elitist NY turd.....

Black Pete was shocked at the news of his replacement.

I used to like Bourdain. He did a show with Ted Nugent. I noticed how left he was do not watch anymore. Sad because I liked the idea of his show.

Well, that was quite a production. They surely must have spent tens of dollars on making that. Hardly impressive. However, the real question I have is what the intent might be in showing the portrait of Pope Benedict XVI on the wall of the naughty children’s house? Is this some intimation of anti-catholicism? Wouldn’t surprise me of course, but still, I do wonder.

The Krampus stories go back hundreds and hundreds of years and are part of local lore in parts of Europe. What’s next, get rid of Knecht Ruprecht, Belsnickel, Zwarte Piet, or Pere Fouettard?

I guess if someone doesn’t want to know about old stories and legends, complain until they are buried.

Did you notice that Krampus looks like George Soros? Must be returning to his WW2 haunts.

Well as long as it doesn’t affect “Christmastime in Hell” on South Park, ok....
