Add me to the list. I am a teacher in NJ. I have on Christmas Carols right now.
Didn't "Kristalnacht" begin with the burning of Books and end with the burning of millions of people.
Christians better start responding to these totalatarian idiots who intend to criminalize being a christian and show them our feelings for our faith before we are done away with.
Jesus Christ is the reason for Christmas.
Just inform Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper and the Denver City Council that they have become a dangerous city for Christian Americans. So you and your family will not be visiting Denver. If you own a corporation, tell him that you will not hold meetings in Denver.
Ever since the Islamofascist Mayor of Portland, Vera Katz, came out as a pro Islamofascist and anti America/GW mayor, we have stopped visiting Portland. We are not alone.
The State Department publishes a list of countries where Americans are not safe. We need to publish a list of anti Christian cities where Christians are not wanted and may not be safe.
Our personal list of anti Christian cities/areas to avoid:
San Francisco, Follywood, San Jose, Marin County, Oakland/ Berkley, Eugene, Oregon, Portland Oregon, Seattle and now Denver.
Many thanks for the email address list. EVERYONE SHOULD SEND AN EMAIL CHRISTMAS CARD TODAY -- they all need the blessing of CHRIST.
See also "Parade prohibition puzzles preacher" and "Denver bans words 'Merry Christmas' from traditional downtown parade of lights" for additional Freeper comments.
Let me get this straight. Any reference to the actual holiday is offensive to other religions, but a state sponsored sardonic parody is supposed to be accepted by Christians.
This parade is to Christians what a Minstrel Show is to Blacks. A Hate Crime is in the eye of the victim. Shut down this travesty.
This Christian foundation has been under attack for over a century in some quarters, such as academia and literary and artistic circles. In the early decades of the 20th Century, liberalism thoroughly infected the mainline Protestant denominations, whose Ivy League colleges, prep schools, seminaries, and other institutions were bulwarks of Christian faith and American civilization. Later in that century, the Roman Catholic Church in America was also swamped by a tide of liberalism, weakening it as a bulwark against the forces of darkness. The New Deal converted the Federal government from a limited role in society to a centralized, dominant element in American life.
The 1960s opened the floodgates of anti-Christian, un-American poison into our body politic. The sexual revolution, situation ethics, explicit sex and gore in the theater, then the movies, and finally TV, the hippie movement and its related drug culture, and multiculturalism were released like demons, destroying the lives of millions and undermining the foundations of American society.
As a result, Denver's 2004 "holiday" celebration involves the celebration of pagans and perverts. It is past time Christians boycotted this "holiday" nonsense and let not only the Denver City Council, but the corporate sponsors of this "holiday" such as the Metro Denver Ford dealers, Xcel Energy, Starbucks, et. al., of their displeasure at their endorsement of an anti-Christian, un-American agenda.
But hardly surprising.
Don't you love bureaucrats? It would be one thing if they had banned "Christmas" years ago but these losers are catching the wave on its way out.
And told him I was stationed at Lowry AFB in 1958.

Hey, Gang! Here's a good site for free virtual e-cards. There are some cute animated ones here that have very strong "reason for the season" Christmas themes to them. I'm on it! I will also inform the Mayor and his staff that since I am a white Christian, I now feel afraid to visit his city to see family, and I will not be visiting for business reasons, either. If he can't prove to me that I would be safe and free to express my beliefs within his city limits, I can no longer take the chance of visiting. Jerk!

Christmas is not just a religious holiday. It is an official FEDERAL holiday. This is akin to banning the term "Happy Thanksgiving" on Thanksgiving day.
Translation: It is unconstitutional for Congress to establish the Church of the United States of America and it is unconstitutional for Government to prohibit you from wishing someone a Merry Christmas.
A lawsuit all the way up to SCOTUS is in order here.
I just called the mayor's office. You can get right through. CALL! CALL! CALL!
The radical leftists did not learn their lesson on Nov. 2nd. We need to hold their heads under the water everytime they start to take a breath.
What kind of response did you get?
Let me get this straight. Any reference to the actual holiday is offensive to other religions, but a state sponsored sardonic parody is supposed to be accepted by Christians.
Yes, thanks to the ACLU and their ilk.
You can join the fight against these people by becoming involved with and supporting the following organizations:
American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) - http://www.aclj.org
Thomas More Law Center (TMLC) - http://www.thomasmore.org
Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) - http://www.alliancedefensefund.org
The Rutherford Institute - http://www.rutherford.org/
Here are just a few recent examples of how two of those organizations are fighting back:
ADF Contacts Over 3,600 School Districts Over Attempts To Censor Christmas
ADF: 700 lawyers ready to fight ACLU lawsuits
ADF: Pentagons' Warning About Boyscouts Is Absurd
Thomas More Law Center: Town of Palm Beach Pays $50,000 In Attorney Fees Apologizes To Women In Nativity Lawsuit
His rep said that the Mayor had not yet taken a position regarding the lighted city signs. He was polite and agreed to convey my thoughts to the Mayor.
Just a lump? I'd give them the whole strip mine :-)
