Ban Christmas, but make the Second Amendmenteers happy: Declare open season, no bag limit, maybe even a per-head bounty, on flying reindeer.
Okay, here’s a story that really did happen, must be about 25 years ago, in Pismo Beach, CA or one of the smaller surrounding towns, as best I remember it:
City put up a Christmas tree on top of a city-owned hilltop overlooking the main freeway through town, or maybe it was a big cross that was there all year round. Diehard militant atheists screamed. (Don’t remember if a court order got involved at this point.)
Christian citizen offers to buy the hilltop from the city, whereupon he will then put up the tree (or cross), the hilltop then being his own private property. City agrees to sell. Christian citizen buys. Christian citizen installs tree (or cross) as expected.
Diehard militant atheists still screamed, claiming the city sold that land deliberately so the private citizen could put that tree (or cross) there, knowing that he was planning to do that, so it was just as bad as if the city still owned the hilltop. Diehard militant atheists take city and/or new hilltop owner to court.
Comes now the part that boggles the mind, as I remember it: The court agreed with Diehard militant atheists. :smack: So private Christian citizen hilltop owner was not permitted to put up his Christian display on his own hilltop.
