Could somebody please explain to me what in the heck is going on here??? A "holiday tree"?? For some strange reason, I had a feeling this would be coming. Next up, the word God will have to be removed frm currency, oh wait, some moron is already trying to do that.

Seriously, these people are going too far. They whine and b**** about EVERYTHING these days. Is calling it a "Christmas" tree really hurting anyone? NO. These people need to go home and just STFU.

Uggggggggh.
Heres what happens:
Step one: Somebody doesn't like something because for some random totally unique reason they are "offended" by something.
Step two: They go out and tell EVERYONE about it.
Step three: Somehow the media gets attached to it.
Step Four: The media releases random polls from god knows where the next day that show that "Near half of America is offended too"
Step five: The organization stops it because of possible bad publicity
Step six: From that moment on, it's politically incorrect to say Christmas in a public setting.
And w00dland is just standing there saying "WTF"

WTF are these peoples problems, do they have nothing better to do then b***h about tradition. I hate those type of people so bad, it pisses me off that they usually end up getting there way too. Damn those people, always making something out of nothing, next they are going to change Christmas to just Mas.This thing is getting out of hand.
I'm running to Bull on opening day, anyone gets in my way and they'll get trampled.
