The city of Ft. Collins, CO started the holiday season off with a bang.
A special task force in this Colorado city recommended banning red and green lights at the Christmas holiday because they felt the lights would remind people of the actual Christmas holiday -- and that is something government "shouldn't do."
In case this might be misconstrued, Seth Anthony, a spokesman for the committee, made it crystal clear.
"Even though the Supreme Court has declared that in many contexts they are secular symbols, often still send a message to some members of the community that they and their traditions are not valued and not wanted,"
"We don't want to send that message," said Anthony.
So Seth, just exactly what kind of message ARE you sending?
