Nobody should be offended either way. The ones falsley "policing" these greetings out of selective outrage and liberal fascism should get Moto's "wall". @motonoggin 2 minutes ago, DAVE said: Big difference though...Zam at least makes sense most of the time.

I feel anyone should be able to wish anyone else in the work place a happy( insert religious holiday here) without any offence being taken. Wish me a happy kwansa (SP) and I see it as a friendly gesture not something I would be offended by. Place a black jesus on your desk, and I see it as an expression of your faith, and another's faith is certainly no threat to my faith. In a free society we should be free in the workplace to celebrate as we see fit as long as it is not interfering with ours or our co-workers productivity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Snowflakes" is a relatively old and played out term. But it's still relevant as hell. They've turned into a group of people that actually look for reasons to be offended. And if they cannot find them, actually create them. Weird mental disorder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in Canada it is in full force, and is now to the point where we have laws that actually will result in the courts taking action if you refuse or purposefully use the wrong pronoun to address a person. This pertains to the new and exciting list of some 56 pronouns strange confused people have simply made up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal While this is school related, it is one that came to mind, and there are thousands. In 2007, a controversy arose when a public school in Ottawa, Ontario, planned to have the children in its primary choir sing a version of the song "Silver Bells" with the word "Christmas" replaced by "festive". In 2011, in Embrun, Ontario, near Ottawa, some parents were displeased when a school replaced the Christmas concert it had held in previous years with a craft sale and winter concert scheduled for February Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is federal legislation just recently in the senate, although it was Ontario legislation prior to the feds adopting it. Not surprising being we have a lesbian activist for our Premier. remember, Canada has become Ontario since Gerald Butts started being Trudeau's puppet master.

Did the word swap happen or was the word Christmas used? Scheduling the winter concert in February instead of December somehow didn't let kids say happy (insert holiday here)? Those are the examples of people being barred from wishing a happy (insert holiday here) to coworkers or fellow students? Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were not for Toronto and his pandering to the 55% of residents not born here, he would have no support in Ontario either. I guess that is why he wants to fast track citizenship for immigrants before the next election. After all, it was his father's plan to import liberal voters and he plans to one up dear old daddy.

Ahh, I did address it, I asked for some examples, you presented a 10 year old planned (unsure if executed) word change in a Christmas song and a schedule change for a winter concert... Perhaps you can now see how silly those are for examples of the point of a company barring a seasonal greeting. Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal No, you were wrong about the amount of people upset by this, and provided nothing to prove otherwise, unless you think your simple assertion is to be taken as proof. I am done with you as I have already stated, you are not worth my time. Enjoy your day bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
