Wow, I can't believe a single purpose organization took a neutral stance with regard to an issue that isn't related to its purpose.

"An organization that constantly highlights its culturally conservative mores wishing people "Happy Holidays" is simply the latest evidence that the war on Christmas is a fraud."

Nice to see that get mentioned. The local news did a piece on Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays and we're in a very conserative Christian area. Nobody interviewed gave a rat's butt. The comments on the article were pretty much in the same vein.

The people that are vocal about the issue are a tiny tiny minority.

If that's the case, how are they everywhere? For there being so few of them, they sure do manage to go after everything with quite a bit of force. Alternatively, there really are that many butthurt Christians.

Christians aren't allowed to get butthurt. They get palmhurt.

There's not many of them but they're vocal, and people that don't give a rip about something don't make noise.

Here's the local article I was talking about. Scroll down a bit and you can hit 'View Results' to see the poll results. Only 6% of people responded with "Yes, I'd boycott, because "Jesus is the reason for the season." Approximately 84% of people responded with they don't care at all.

Somewhere around 10% of Jews own guns. Why piss off potential donors?

The War On Christmas® is now acknowledged to exist by Media Mattards?

My god, the stupid is coming from all sides!!

Absolutely nobody gives two shiats about the War on Christmas except Hannity and O'Rly, as far as I can tell. It's actually a good acid test for utter mouth-breathing stupidity. The smarter Christians (who know Jesus wasn't born at this time of year, and realize that the Christ's Mass was placed during the pagan solstice festivals to usurp them) are fully aware that attacking people for not focusing on a holiday marked by Santa (secular), a yule log (pagan), and a decorated tree (specifically mentioned in the Bible as heretical) miiiiiight come back to bite them on the ass.

Recognizing that imbeciles believe that this is a thing != Believing that this is a thing.

But you knew that. But, by all means, carry on with your BSABSVR self.

Actually, I don't do that BSABSVR crap. I try to vote for the issues important to me, and I don't care how anyone else votes.

I used to have an envelope with an inkstamping on the front of it--it was something like "Jews For Universal Armament" with a picture of Adolf Hitler and a comment to the effect that armed people don't get rounded up for concentration camps. I remember getting that letter from some guy back in the day. I wish I still had that envelope. Maybe I'll look for it and scan it in if I find it. Pretty freaky.

A Dark Evil Omen: The difference is that I'm pretty sure the latter basically never happens. If you can find the one guy who ever did that I'll call him a jackass for you.

I've seen that. But then again I used to hang out with some pretty pissed-off old cranky Unitarians--the kind with grey hair everywhere and that old people smell that get on rants about feeding Christians to the lions like the Romans did. Unitarian churches in the Bible Belt sometimes become a haven for people like that.

I miss shooting at my old gun range. My wife vetoes the idea of guns anywhere with the kids around. Maybe years from now I'll inherit my dad's rifles and his nice 12-gauge when the girls are older.

Why are you shiatting up the thread?

Because he is some douche-bag's alt. It is genetic.

I didn't buy their Christmas Cards this year because they labeled them as 'Holiday Cards' on the envelope.

Pfft, I didn't buy their's because it didn't have a pic of a baby being eaten. I mean, really, WTF?

"What makes a good man go neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?"

I was hoping for that. :)

As a Christian who has Jewish, Muslim, Atheist, and Pagan friends, I tend acknowledge thier holidays.

Happy Hannukah, Good Yule, Rocking Ramadan, Crazy Kwanzaa, and of course, Nice Vacation.

Same reason that you can be on an airplane with hundreds of other people but all you hear is that one baby.

They aren't. The people who are laughing at them, on the other hand...

Because the 'Silent Majority' argument hasn't already been pretty debunked every time it's been used.

It was probably JPFO - Jews for the Preservation of Firearm Ownership.

I can't stand that charity that greets you with pictures of those poor hare-lipped children. They say on the envelope: donate once and we'll never send you another mailing.

Good luck claiming self-defense. Even in a castle doctrine state, they'll laugh you all the way to prison.

Heh, yeah, sniper rifles at 100 yards would even stretch the boundaries of a Florida law.
