Apparently I guessed well. See the other Freeper thread about this guy lighting the menora in a public ceremony.

This is blatant discrimination against Christians.

It's time to stop shopping and let the powers that be know Christ is Christmas and we can play hardball to get that message across.

I will not shop this season and I hope others join me.

Bingo. This is the only response that will be effective. These secular humanist types may not worship God, but they certainly worship money. If the local Christmas shoppers choose to go go spend it elsewhere, the business community WILL speak up (they'll call for the mayor's head on a plate).

Personally, I think they should be able to march in the parade. But since they cannot this year, I am only suggesting they do something good as an alternative. They could line the path of the parade and sing to the mayor as he goes by."""

Agreed

i THINK

that you know that this really is satanically inspired

and puppet master driven . . .

Christians are to be exterminated, literally, in their agenda.

This is just the beginning.

"In Germany, they first came for the communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist," said the Rev. Martin Niemöller. "Then they came for the Jews and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics. I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak up."
The Rev. Niemöller spent time in one of the concentration camps.

From what I've observed, it's mostly secular Jews who are behind the ACLU assaults on Christians. Observant Jews respect people of faith and don't participate in this nonsense. And despite all their noise, there really aren't many true atheists around.

My question for the City and County of Denver is that if "Merry Christmas" is so offensive, why do they give the day off to employees? That would be even more offensive. I think those idiots ought to work Christmas Day, if they really believe their B.S.

Soon Christmas will be criminalized, and we will all be Muslim, thanks to the ACLU."""

Don't blame the Muslims for suppressing Christmas. The ACLU is a heavily Jewish organization. I don't know of any Muslims who are leaders of this vile group, do you?

Well your the second one that claims the Jews are behind this, and are allegedly offended by Christmas. Interesting.

Thanks...

Don't ask me why, but 'Hickenlooper' is a name that I'd expect to be associated with a flawed decision like this. LOL

. . . . uhhhhhhh

hello?

to be blunt . . .

it's SATAN

and his puppet master stooges eager to set up a world government to make extermination of Christians easier and more 'efficient.'

He knows that Christ is His opposition and satan knows that his days are numbered. So, he wants to rob, kill and destroy big time in the little time left.

Especially Christians--and the insincere 'Christians' and the weak, unprayerful half-hearted Christians will be easy prey.

GREAT IDEA.

BUT FIRST, SATURATE THE ROUTE WITH SUCH BELIEVERS.

AND HAVE 2ND, 3RD, 4TH, 12TH, 25TH TIER WAVES READY TO TAKE THEIR PLACES IMMEDIATELY.

NOW OR NEVER, GROUP!
