I've heard about this news from my cousin. I agree with the previous posts that this shouldn't have happened.

[quote="chriscollector"]The people who get behind these things should be checked for mental stability. If a woman is so insecure that she happens to walk past a mall santa and hears HO HO HO that she turns and looks, maybe she is doing some not so nice things that will land her on the naughty list.
To take the most traditional sayings of Santa away from the most joyus time of the year, is absolutely rediculous. It would really be nice if these people would do something productive with their time. I've been to Austrailia, and let me tell you one thing. Santa's yelling HO HO HO is the least of their worrys. I saw many HO HO HOs out and about, maybe they should be scaled down to be "polticaly correct". What a joke. These activists are ruining the longest standing traditions from wich out heritage was born and raised. I love the Christmas season. I do nice things I would normally never do, and I see many people do this. LEAVE SANTA ALONE.[/quote]
I completly agree! {clap}

I think this is ridiculous. It makes me so mad that politics is even getting in the way of the holidays. It's not like a little kid will take offense for Santa saying "HO HO HO", I mean, come on! :mad:

LMAOS haha getting more offensive to women. Just WOW. :lol: :lol: :lol:

now...this makes no sence to me, why people do this kind of stuff....sure kids in high school make jokes about it but its not like they believe in santa anymore. Kids who do believe dont even know the other term. I mean, if they heard somebody call someone that normally, the child would think santa, right?

It would be funny if it wasnt so completely ridiculous. Who lets these idiots have a say in this stuff? The world is going mad.

That is just ridiculous.
