[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 107638, member: 1545"] A few years ago, our fine city chose to not put the manger scene on the court house lawn as per the protests of one Jewish woman. She had only lived in our small community for less than a year. (We also have symbolic representations of the Jewish faith as well - next to the Christian ones.) The whole community was outraged. Then to add insult to injury, that next summer, they city fathers allowed the KKK to come and demonstrate on our court house lawn. I remember thinking "Our world has gone mad". We will not allow the symbolic representation of Peace, Goodwill on our city lawns, but we allow the very symbolic representation of hatred to set up camp and hold a rally? It still makes my blood boil. Ahhh - but it was politically correct. Give me a freaking break. [/QUOTE]
