Who is going to be offended?

The F'n immigrants?
The F'n traitors to our nation?

Someone please tell me who they are trying not to offend, other than AMERICANS?

Gary Mote who handles Public Affairs from the Southeast Sunbelt Region says the decision was to "...make sure no one is offended."

What about the people who were offended that you're such a weenie-necked weasel that you would do this?

Time to start writing letters. Where is it in the constitution that says one of our liberties is freedom from being offended?

I don't really get it.....the non-religious tree may offend people, but the snowman, reindeer, and sleigh won't? The lunacy of those that don't want to offeeeeeeend anyone never ceases to amaze me.

I'm OFFENDED at all the "Lack" of Christmas spirit this year. The atheists are offending me, with their dribble and getting their minority way of ridding society of it's religious context.

Maybe I should sue!!

Well I'm offended by it's removal!

Ninety percent of Americans are Christians so if the other ten percent are offended then they need to go live elsewehere!

It's about time that W stepped up and showed some some balls!

They can't even call it a "Christmas Tree" in the headline. If it's a "Holiday Tree", why not leave it up?

I'm OFFENDED by the removal of the tree by these petty no-account tin-horn tyrants! Just why do people think they have an unassailable right to 'not be offended'???

"...make sure no one is offended."

I'm offended. But I guess because I'm a Christian, I don't count, at least not with "progressive secularists."

Wouldn't have expected this in a southern state, Jeb's state.
Come on Gov, step in and show them who's boss. Show them they can't mess with a Bush or a tree!

Merry Christmas Florida!!

The offensive Christmas tree!

Looks ofensive to me -- but because of style, not symbolism...

We should start a movement to establish a Constitutional amendment that states:

"The 'right to not be offended' does not exist, and this Constitution in no way provides or protects such a purported 'right'.    Shove it!"
