Perhaps JPMorgan Chase had more to do with Bernie Madoff than Jamie Dimon would like to admit.

It’s more a fear of who it may offend

Anyone who banks with Chase or BA are enemies of the state and not patriots besides.

I would like to see the expressions on the faces of these atheists when they meet the Living God.

It might offend the 1% Richard Dawkins followers.

Don't worry about the other 99% that are mostly Christians....

*We have to get rid of these Pine Forests!!!*

“We have to get rid of the Earth and all life.
because it reminds atheists that none of these things are possible without God.”
~Brought to you by VHEMT, some of the AGW crowd, Bill Maher(?), Al Gore (?), and Michael Moore (on second thought that would destroy Twinkies).

I hope they never take my advice seriously and push the button!

The most intolerant people on the face of the Earth are muslims and liberals.

This is probably being handled on a case by case basis. I work across the street from the Chase bank building in downtown Dallas; they have a huge Christmas display every year.

I am too. I suspect there are more of us than them, but for some bizzare reason, the minority always gets their way in this country tp the detriment of the majority.

The thing is, Southlake is about as WASP as it gets. We’re not talking about Dearborn, Michigan here.

I’m sure a majority of people would be offended that the tree was removed. We are witnessing tyranny by a minority, the opposite of democracy.
