Target Halloween

posted Thursday, 4 October 2007
How far are the immigrant cultures coming to our country going to change the fabric of our lives?  We are seeing the demonization of all religious symbols in our society, a campaign that has been waged by the Left for years.  Instead of Christmas programs in schools, like most of us enjoyed in our youth, we have holiday programs;  and as a part of the “holiday” season, the Left jumps at the chance to attack every display of a menorah, Christmas tree, or nativity scene.  Conversely, they will fight to make all things Muslim a part of our daily lives.  From public foot baths to trying to impose Islamic holidays on our schools (ironic isn’t it) they seem intent on ramming their culture and religion down our throats; how long before sharia law begins to rear its ugly head?  

The latest imposition on our schools is manifesting itself in suburban Chicago:  

Parents in Oak Lawn sounded off Tuesday night about what they see as an assault on traditional American celebrations. At issue is whether Halloween and Christmas celebrations are insensitive to school children who are Muslim. CBS2 Chicago   

Naturally the family at the center of this new controversy does not want to impose, does not want to take away existing holidays, they just want to add theirs to the rotation.  The Left has made it virtually impossible for Christian and Jewish “holiday” symbols to be a part of the yearly celebrations yet this Muslim family wants to add THEIR RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY to the curriculum.  And how is the celebration of Halloween insensitive to Muslim children, and why do American children have to change THEIR traditions to accommodate them?  We are losing our culture one battle at a time and we as a Nation need to come together and let our elected officials know that enough is enough; it is time to protect our traditions and stop pandering to other cultures!
