Try being a Jew 50 years ago in the U.S. or 5 minutes ago in many other countries and see who gives a * about your rights.

The same can certainly be said for the Irish, Italians and other groups when they arrived here in large numbers. There were signs in stores that said, "No Dogs or Irishmen." Somehow, secular Jewish activists want to equate denied country club membership and difficulty getting jobs in large corporations 50 years ago to a "right" to pound Christian holiday expressions with Federal lawsuits today. It just doesn't add up. I'm still getting subjected to age and gender discrimination, although I am a white Protestant native-born American woman. Who do I sue?

secular Jewish activists

Could you find me a secular Jewish activist in this story?

Do secular activists come in any other variety?

Exactly. And if the Italians, my fellow Irish and other groups didn't speak up then those signs may still be hanging in the stores. This guy's approach was way off but his intent was to speak up. He just did a lousy job getting his point across. The lawsuit, which should never have been filed, didn't say take down the trees. It merely said if other's are there, then so should mine be. As you know, the fact that the trees were removed nullifiled the legal challenge.
