FOX news reports a victory over War On Christmas

From my second link, don’t think some aren’t trying, even with Santa Claus

Santa Claus. In early December, taxpayer-funded officials in the Hillsboro, Oregon school district banned imagery of Santa Claus because “images and artifacts” “like Santa Claus” create insufficiently “inclusive and welcoming spaces.” (RELATED: Taxpayer-Funded School District Bans SANTA CLAUS ‘To Create Inclusive And Welcoming Spaces’)

Kona Lew-Williams, the human resources director in the suburban Portland school district, sent a 282-word memo to employees concerning the ban. “We ask that you be respectful and sensitive to the diverse perspectives and beliefs of our community and refrain from using religious-themed decorations or images like Santa Claus,” Lew-Williams wrote. A “winter wonderland” theme, or perhaps a celebration “of the amazing people in your department” would be much better, she pontificated.

After local parents responded very negatively to the Santa Claus ban, the Hillsboro school district took to its Facebook page to swear that Santa was not prohibited. The memo was merely a reminder “that we need to create inclusive and welcoming spaces for all of our students.”

One? How many lawsuits have been brought trying to remove anything to do with Christmas. Christmas in this country has been celebrated with traditions such as the phrase Merry Christmas, nativity scenes, Christmas music, lights or candles, the cross, etc. for centuries, yet the aclu and the freedom from religion foundation sue everyone they can, to take away that right, and unless people have the money to fight these lawsuits, they have to give in to their whims.

Yet you’ll claim there is no war on Christmas traditions in this country...
Why do you guys need to turn everything into a war, though? One August West in the neighborhood and you're crying victim hood and saintly defense of God and all kinds of stuff to make you feel more righteous.
Chill out. No one ever ruined my Christmas spirit or celebration by wishing me a happy holiday or making me wait until I got home to enjoy the creche and my tree. Why would such a thing affect you?
No one is trying to remove Christmas, except from government/public property and spaces. Not Santa Christmas, either, just religious Christmas.


A couple of years ago, there was a Maine school that decided to ban a teacher's Hello Kitty Christmas tree from her English classroom. She had been bringing it in for years. No one ever objected, but a new superintendent determined that there should be no Christmas trees.
It was all over the front page of the papers and there was such an uproar that within a week the tree was back in her classroom and I've got the strong feeling that superintendent was not superintendent for very long.
What an asshole.

My point being, that one overly zealous fruitcake will be shut down, just as it appears this one in your article was, by reasonable people who still have a mind. Why must you exaggerate and turn it into a war? I am still waiting for why you are borrowing trouble here?

My Lady, you jest!
It could not be clearer their motivation; partisan incitement.
They are rewarded at some level.
 
Why is it that the worst among us, the Deplorables, claim to be Christians at any time of the year?
These are Christians?

Why?
Neo-Nazis hijacking Christmas from real Christians. Any other stupid questions?


Exactly , that's why your pissed because the right owns Christmas..


And you can't understand how it happens as the left aborts like a million baby's a year .

I wonder if FOX would have been so quick to report if a home owner in a HOA won a legal argument to slaughter chickens in his front yard every night with some heavy duty spotlights on every day of Ramadan, in observance of Muslim religious beliefs? How dare the HOA try to interfere with his public display of his religious devotion, as if Christmas lights are somehow a religious display?

Yes, of course. I feel kinda sad that people actually believe that, though. I think some of them actually have been persuaded they are martyrs.
