Maybe the complaint came from some of the prostitute groups. /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

(Hmmmm... if nobody gets that, I'm gonna feel kinda silly here. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif)

Yeah, JD, I read the same thing on one of the news services. Unbelievable, ain't it?

And yep, Harv, I get it. I may be slow, but not that slow./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

I also got got an e-mail yesterday saying there'd be no live nativity scenes in Washington, DC, this year. Said it was because they couldn't find 3 wise men and a virgin in DC, although they had plenty of asses to fill the stable./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Yup, first thing I thought of also. Guess that what happens when you get older.

There was just an article in the paper where a man dressed as Santa and his daughter were asked to leave a shopping mall. "security reasons". Mentioned no masks,disguises, etc. allowed in there approaching children.

The local mall here tried to ban the Salvation Army from ringing the bell as they stood around the collection pot. Said it annoyed people who came to shop. Talk about a Scrooge. Public opinion was against them on it and they quickly gave up on that idea.

Harv, got it here/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I saw a cartoon where Santa was on the witness stand in a sex discrimination trial.
The prosecutor was saying<font color=red> " Did you or did you not, call this lady a Ho, not once, not twice, but three times."</font color=red>

In Kensington MD, one of the suburbs of Washington DC, Santa was "uninvited" from the annual Christmas Tree lighting ceremony by the town council because two families complained that his presence "made them uncomfortable" as their family's religious beliefs did not include Santa Claus.

No explanation was given as to why attending a CHRISTmas tree lighting didn't make them uncomfortable whereas having Santa there did. But the town council felt the need to be PC and banned the jolly old man from lighting the tree - in favor of "honoring our heroes" and having a police officer and fire fighter light the tree.

Seems the fire department didn't exactly agree with the town council and arrived at the ceremony with Santa atop one of their trucks - lights and sirens blazing.
