Fort Collins, Colorado - over-abuse of political correctness
Yikes -- you can't just make this up. From
Short News:
Colorado Town Wants To Ban Red And Green Lights
The town of Fort Collins, Colorado, and its Holiday Display Task Force are in the process of making their Christmas decorations more politically correct.
The task force plans to recommend that the city displays only include white lights, winter symbols that aren't linked with any particular holiday and other non-secular items.
Additionally, Christmas trees will no longer be permitted to be put up outside of public buildings or on public property. The city plans on voting on the recommendations on November 20th.
One of the comments to this post was spot-on:
The term "politically correct" has way too many syllables.
"Major jerks" reduces it down to only three. Same description, less syllables. Better.
