"Now, since we're supposed to respect "diversity," how can the recognition of somebody else's customs ever be "offensive?" That recognition is supposed to be the greatest good to these idiots."
You've hit the nail squarely on the head. One of the main points of the whole diversity movement is purportedly to enjoy and respect other people's traditions; so incidents like this show the big lie behind the diversity movement. For the left, the PURPOSE of respecting other cultures is to UNDERMINE our own culture and traditions; therefore they treat our own culture as the only culture whose public expression is deemed threatening or offensive. So what seems to us as blatant hypocrisy is to the left not hypocrisy at all; rather, it is simply lying.

Well stated.
That's the point. This needs to be repeated (to liberals and those voting democrat) again and again. With the Christmas season upon us, there's no better time for this discussion.
Nothing better than putting slack-jawed liberals into cunundrums over their own terminolgy/ideology.
Cheers!
