My husband is an Orthodox rabbi, and has a white fluffy beard and is what you would call "portly." He wears a black hat and a black coat but when he goies out to the supermarket or the pharmacy little kids are always staring at him. He smiles back and says, "Santa always knows when you are naughty or nice!"Hilarious! And good-hearted!

"Mott said he was told that a parent of a child complained to the district about Mott's headgear, saying that the child doesn't believe in Santa Claus and was bothered by the hat."
This sounds "made up."This happens in the northeastern states and large coastal cities all the time.
The ACLU incriminates "AWC" (American while Christian).

My husband and I are already in conflict about Santa - whether to tell our child that he's fiction right off the bat, but still do presents and enjoy the holiday. I always told mine that Santa is "the Spirit of Christmas," as well as reading children's illustrated stories of the nativity. From year to year, kids ask questions and I was able to fill in more and more. When the child was ready to understand, and already had heard from me that Jesus' birthday was the main reason for the celebration, the question came about whether Santa was "real." I explained that a Spirit works through people to do God's work. So that we might see many people dressed like Santa but whose heights or faces are different. They are truly helpers of the real, and invisible, Spirit of Christmas, bringing joy to others.

I wish he'd go ahead and wear an entire Santa suit just to really PI$$ OFF that one "offended" parent. I'll go halves on a load of COAL to be dumped in the twit's yard!

Ken Mott, a school driver for Bauman Bus Company, was told to remove the hat due to acomplaint.
The company has since settled the situation and Mott will again wear his Santa hat while driving

Is this guy a communist because he is wearing a hat that many commies wore in the USSR during winter. The PC police are taking over.
