An elementary school in Frisco, Texas is believed to be the first in the state to violate “The Merry Christmas Law” after they banned Christmas trees and the colors red & green from an upcoming “winter” party.

Boys and girls who attend the Nichols Elementary School “Winter Party” will not be able to make any reference to Christmas or any other religious holiday. Christmas trees are also banned—along with the colors red and green. …

Ironically, the school is located in the district of state Rep. Pat Fallon, the author of a bill signed into law in June that codifies the fact that students and staff are permitted to discuss winter holidays as they please. …

This is a blatant First Amendment violation and should be openly defied. As soon as the party begins, all of the kids and their parents should yell out "Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah!". If any of them are forced to leave the party, a lawsuit should follow.

“so red and green make people feel like Jesus is trying to recruit them....guess they can’t wear blue or white or gold either, might seem like Hanukkah, and green is too Islamic”

Stop lights will have to be changed since the colors red and green are somehow presumed to be offensive.

SHEESH! What an insane Theater of the Absurd! Banning COLORS?!?

As you say, gold and silver are too celebratory.

Purple / violet and rose / pink are the colors of Advent candles, so there goes that part of the color wheel.

White, the lack of color, is associated with purity. That obviously would have to go. Black, all colors, has to go because it contains banned colors.

What is left for the color police? but a joyless and colorless world.

Here’s an idea just SKIP the Winter Party. Obviously there is nothing there to celebrate. A party without a purpose. A joyless event.
