An administrator at California State University, Sacramento has banned decorations pertaining to Christmas and the 4th of July, among other holidays, from her office because they represent "religious discrimination" and "ethnic insensitivity."
"Time has come to recognize that religious discrimination, as well as ethnic insensitivity to certain holidays, is forbidden," Patricia Sonntag, director of the Office of Services to Students with Disabilities, stated in the directive she e-mailed to members of her staff on Dec. 9.
Cybercast News Service obtained the directive from the non-profit Catholic League, which "defends the right of Catholics ... to participate in American public life without defamation or discrimination," according to its website. The content of the e-mail was confirmed by the university.

...banned decorations pertaining to Christmas and the 4th of July,...4th of July?? The 4th of July is probably the most secular of all the federal holidays. Why would that be banned? Oh yeah, I forgot this is a California university, all common sense is checked at the door.

It's not the minorities that are offended by these things, it's only the white liberals, like Sonntag, that are.

It would be nice if her staff members put up Christmas decor anyway. When she tried to discipline them, they could file a grievance over the denial of their First Amendment rights.

Then all university staff should be forced to give up the two paid holidays.

July 4 is insensitive to non-Americans. Much like Mother's/Father's Day is insensitive to kids with no moms or dads.
I'm just 'splainin'...not that I believe this crap!
