"And what is wrong with one Santa Claus? Why do you have to have two Santa Clauses?"
Isn't that basically saying there's no need for more than two religions? |

@mikey We are talking about a traditional dutch winter holiday figure. He rides on a white horse, and has helpers with black faces and ridiculous costumes who throw gifts through chimneys
santa claus is based on it |

Not to forget that his helpers are black. But only because of the dirt in the chimney, tales say.
Still, people think it's racist and they want it banned. Absolutely ridiculous. Banning it is like banning a piece of the Dutch.
This tradition has been going on since the Medieval Ages. |

"Her comments on Tuesday made headlines in the Netherlands, where a newly-released poll suggests that 95 percent of Dutch people do not associate Zwarte Piet with slavery. It also showed 91 percent of Dutch people do not believe Zwarte Piet's black color should be changed on the basis of a small number of complaints, and 81 percent of respondents would consider such a change unacceptable."

It's like anything that is not white is treated differently. They can't take it away. That will just taking away a part of The Netherlands. |

I doubt it will be taken away, I mean, you'll have almost the whole Dutch civilization on your ass if you do so. And the Dutch are warriors.
So ye, still, whoever wanted this gone is my enemy. |
