American Principal Bans Candy Canes Because 'J Shape' Stands for Jesus (Details)
There are some stories that just make you facepalm.
This is one of them.
Isn’t Christmas a celebration of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior?
This Nebraskan principal apparently doesn’t know that or doesn’t care.
In short, it’s okay to be any religion you want – except Christian.
This is wild…
From New York Post:
An elementary school principal in Nebraska was placed on leave after telling teachers to avoid decorating their classrooms with Christmas-themed ornaments so as not to offend those who don’t celebrate the holiday.
[…]
Decorations that included Santa, Christmas trees, reindeer, green and red items and even candy canes, however, were not acceptable for the elementary school.
The candy canes, according to KETV, were prohibited because Sinclair deemed them to have religious significance. “Historically, the shape is a ‘J’ for Jesus. The red is for the blood of Christ, and the white is a symbol of his resurrection,” she reportedly wrote. “This would also include different colored candy canes.”
The Detroit school board is considering renaming Benjamin Carson High School because it is “offensive.”
The school was named for current HUD Secretary Ben Carson, renowned neurosurgeon.
In other words, it’s offensive to some to be a black man and hold conservative views.
That’s the bottom line.
From Daily Wire:
The board will seek comment over the next several months on whether to change Carson High, which was named for Dr. Ben Carson before he became active in politics, and well before he became an ally of President Donald Trump, something the Detroit School Board apparently doesn’t appreciate.
[…]
“Lemmons cited the neurosurgeon’s name being added when the district was under an emergency financial manager, saying some residents objected to Carson representing the city,” they added, quoting Lemmons as noting that “Residents ‘don’t support the (Trump) administration.'”
Talk about a slap in the face.
And why do this?
Because Carson works in the Trump administration?
What about the fact that Carson became uber-successful and ran for president? Does that count for nothing?
What happens when people find the Barack Obama High School name offensive?
Will it, too, be renamed?
Ridiculous.
Obama was photographed with noted anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan sometime before the 2008 presidential election.
The picture was kept hidden until recently.
Farrakhan recently compared Jews to termites in a tweet but was hardly given a slap on the wrist by Twitter, the Democrat Party, or the mainstream media.
While in Iran, Louis led a chant calling for “Death to America” and Israel.
From Daily Wire:
A video published by Iranian state television shows Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan leading an Iranian audience in the infamous “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” chants so often heard at political rallies in the country.

Obama was always credited as a good orator.
He always appeared calm and cool under pressure, even when appearing to lie through his teeth – as is the case with most politicians at any given time.
However, a body language expert has analyzed Obama and results are stunning.
In short, Obama is coming off as desperate.
“This is not the same Obama I’m seeing. His head goes down a lot more in that downward position. It’s like a defeatist position. He’s no longer that confident, head held high, arrogant mentality… This is desperation.”
