This isn't going to be one of my basically harmless off topic posts as
it's something I feel pretty strongly about (Yeah,Don has a bee in his
bonnet.) and welcome discussion on. I just hope I feel up to
participating beyond this.

At a local school a father and his student daughter decorated the school
with white and red stripes. One, and that's the way the story I heard
puts it ONE (It even names him.), local resident objected claiming that
the display was candy canes and that they are a Christmas thing.
Luckily the local select board ruled that candy canes are a secular
representation of the holiday and that they will be allowed to stand.
My main objection to this business is that if the story I've heard is
correct that one individual tried to impose his will on a town that
obviously didn't share his views.

Exactly the opposite Don. The town was trying to impose its will upon
him. Freedom in this country is set up to protect the minority from the
whims of the majority.

Amen!
