ST. PAUL, Minn. - The Easter Bunny has been sent packing at St. Paul City Hall.

A toy rabbit, pastel-colored eggs and a sign with the words "Happy Easter" were removed from the lobby of the City Council offices, because of concerns they might offend non-Christians.

A council secretary had put up the decorations. They were not bought with city money.

St. Paul's human rights director, Tyrone Terrill, asked that the decorations be removed, saying they could be offensive to non-Christians.

But City Council member Dave Thune says removing the decorations went too far, and he wonders why they can't celebrate spring with "bunnies and fake grass."

Yes, I know, this is an outrage, right? The left is trying to totally eradicate God from America. Rant on, righties.

But really...why does St. Paul have a human rights director?

Well, that was stupid. Those are pagan Easter ideas and are not Christian but I still disagree with the act. PC run amock and it sucks.

Absolutley true. We're getting so fucking sensitive to everybody lately. Don't offend the Muslims, don't offend Non-Christians, don't offend the howler monkeys at the local zoo, blah blah blah. I can imagine that 20 years from now all traditional holidays will be abolished. We'll just have 10-11 randomly chosen days off, scattered throughout the year. Shit!! Makes me sick. Diversity is one of the things that makes this country great. Why can't people embrace other cultures/beliefs and learn from them instead of being offended by them?

Hey now, I am a Vikes fan, and find these people to be the biggest complainers to be. It's a damn chocolate rabbit and a colored egg. Jesus H. Christ, grow a set of balls people and stop bitching about every damn thing that might "offened" you.

A Vikings fan in Chi town???? You must have a death wish!


A Packer fan in a bar leans over to the guy next to him and says, "Wanna hear a joke about Viking fans?"

The guy next to him replies, "Well before you tell that joke you should know something. I'm 6' tall and 220 pounds and I'm a Viking fan. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2" tall, 240 pounds and he's a Viking fan, and the guy sitting next to him is 6'5", 280 pounds and he's a Viking fan too. Now, do you still wanna tell that joke?"

The Packer fan says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it three times.":thumbsup:
