We need to wake up as a country, folks that come here need to embrace this culture or not come plain and simple.

    New SOP, only school children get a HOLIDAY Vacation at CHRISTMAS time. Teachers can stay there and white glove the bathrooms for 2 weeks.

    We don't want to upset the apple cart now, do we?

    My god I’m glad I don’t have any kids that go to school anymore. Just because a candy cane is hung, doesn’t mean you’re forcing anything on anyone. Society is really going to shit, and caving into the “I’m offended” crowd is just making it worse. I don’t know how you all do it. I’d snap the the first time someone gave me the im offended bullchit.

No. Perception by these "offended by everything" people is not reality. Reality (and common sense) is reality. Not mad at you here. I'm just trying to point out that we need to stand up for what is right before these people take our rights away.
    I'll add here that if anybody tells you life is fair, THEY ARE LYING TO YOU. Learn to deal with it and move on.
