A city bureaucrat forces a secretary to take down her own, personal Easter display:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The display &#8211; a cloth Easter bunny, pastel-colored eggs and a sign with the words &#8220;Happy Easter&#8221; &#8211; was put up by a City Council secretary. They were not purchased with city money. <\/p>\n<p>Tyrone Terrill, the city&#8217;s <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">human rights director<\/span>, asked that the decorations be removed. Terrill said no citizen had complained to him.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>See, this is the problem, the city has a &#8220;human rights director.&#8221; He probably has nothing better to do then walk around city hall looking for offensive material such as bunnies.<br \/>\nBTW, I know of  Christians who would be offended by the Easter bunnies and decorated eggs.   This is what is so humorous about all this, there is nothing Christian about an Easter bunny or an decorated egg.  Just as there&#8217;s nothing Christian about Santa Claus.  A bunny and a decorated egg?  Not in the Bible.<br \/>\nI personally don&#8217;t have a problem with bunnies, my daughters have gotten a lot of them for Easter over the years.  I prefer that my Easter bunny be chocolate (hmmm, chocolate).<br \/>\nUpdate: <a href=\"http:\/\/reformedchicksblabbing.blogspot.com\/2006\/03\/update-to-offensive-bunny-in-city-hall.html\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is ridiculous.
