I think that to preserve everyone's first amendment rights, protesters should apply for a permit, set up outside Krupnick's house and sing the following:

You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch
Author: Dr. Seuss
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Grinch.


You're a bad banana
With a greasy black peel.


You're a monster, Mr. Grinch.
Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders,
You've got garlic in your soul.
Mr. Grinch.


I wouldn't touch you, with a
thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole.


You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch.
You have termites in your smile.
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile.
Mr. Grinch.


Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crockodile.


You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch.
You're a nasty, wasty skunk.
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk.
Mr. Grinch.


The three words that best describe you,
are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk."


You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch.
You're the king of sinful sots.
Your heart's a dead tomato splot
With moldy purple spots,
Mr. Grinch.


Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing
with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable
rubbish imaginable,
Mangled up in tangled up knots.


You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch.
With a nauseaus super-naus.
You're a crooked jerky jockey
And you drive a crooked horse.
Mr. Grinch.


You're a three decker saurkraut and toadstool
sandwich
With arsenic sauce.

(c) 1957 by Dr Seuss.

How cute. :p

Ah, slasher Santa. A six year old out there is really pissed off that someone stole his idea.

Saw that on Fox about a week ago. People need to learn self-control. I mean protest the corporate take over of christmas all you want but have some self-control not to sicken out the poor kiddies. I mean christ there's gotta be a better way to protest it then that.

Hmmm he would probably like it.

But he does have a point when you consider people are so damn stupid and pay $1500 for an X-Box.

yea but its their choice to be stupid. Just like its this familys choice to put this kinda sick freak show display in their yard.

damn i thought for a second they were making Silent Night, Deadly Night (http://www.badmovies.org/movies/silentnight/index.html) Figurines


PUNISH!!!!!!!!

"Christmas has religious origins," he said. "It's in the Bible. Santa is not in the Bible. He's not a religious symbol."

i find it quite funny that they said this, since christmas is actually a celebration based on, and designed to replace, the pagan winter solstice celebrations.

I rather laughed about that too. While the theme's a bit excessive, I share the same sentiments.

While the American Santa is a combination of the pagan Father Christmas and the very Christian bishop(saint) Nicholas of Myra - who as a "non-religious symbol" (cause there is no religion except Christianity it seems) has quite a few churches with his name on it...

That's my favorite verse. Makes me laugh out loud every time. :)

Even if there wasn't an amusing reason to sing that song, I'd sing it anyway. It's a legendary song that I was singing earlier for no particular reason. I was also singing Springtime for Hitler, as it's similarly amusing.

some people take Christmas faaar too seriously. I can't see anything wrong with a yearly extravagence!

Really? The one I sing aloud most often is

"You nauseate me, Mr Grinch
With a Nauseous super Naus!
You're a crooked jerky jockey
and you drive a crooked horse!
Mr Grinch."

I think it is funny that his reasons for putting up the slasher Santa are that he objects to the secularization of Christmas.

No one answered the family's door to explain on Tuesday, but Krupnik told the New York Post it was a statement about the commercialization and secularization of Christmas.

"Christmas has religious origins," he said. "It's in the Bible. Santa is not in the Bible. He's not a religious symbol."

He's just a good Catholic, Kat. :p

While the American Santa is a combination of the pagan Father Christmas and the very Christian bishop(saint) Nicholas of Myra - who as a "non-religious symbol" (cause there is no religion except Christianity it seems) has quite a few churches with his name on it...
yet it was originally pagan, then stolen by christians, as is quite a number of the pagan festivals.

Slasher Santa. LMAO. Wish I had done it first.

Honestly, what else can be expected of a man who obsessively breaks into the homes of millions on one particular day by means of their chimney with the sole purpose of stealing food and stuffing socks full of items meant to represent him? Any cop worth his donuts knows that this is an open-shut case.

Slasher Santa. LMAO. Wish I had done it first.
I made a snowman christmas ornament once... complete with knives, swords and other items sticking out of it and little red dots all over the place.



My Aunt (who was a shrink) really didn't find it all too amusing...
