Again they solely targetted the Christian symbol. God forbid you actually acknowledge something which constitutes the federal holiday.
In Denver's parade of lights the city barred a float with the words "Merry Christmas" on it.
Los Angeles was threatened to be sued if they didn't move a cross from the city seal, a city founded by Christian missionaries. Like a bunch of pussies they didn't stand up to the ACLU. They also did it in Redlands, but at the same time let the pagan goddess Pomona stand.
These are just a few on the pathetic and frivolous instances of anything Christian in the public square being attacked.

Oh St. Stephen would be so proud! Onward christian martyrs!
I'll give you that these may be examples of persecution, but they're necessary for our government to function under the Constitutuion. If christians choose to violate our 1st amendment then they should be persecuted to the fullest extent of the law. To claim that there is overwhelming pressure from society which keeps christians from practicing their faith is preposterous.
