PC Principal Bans Christmas, Thanksgiving, And America
Just when you thought PC culture couldn’t get anymore absurd, Brooklyn’s PS 169 decided to throw a PC rager to close out the year. New principal Eujin Jaela Kim, who is only 33, mind you, decided to ban Christmas, Thanksgiving, and America from PS 169 in Sunset Park, Brooklyn.
From FOX News:
“We definitely can’t say Christmas, nothing with Christmas on it, nothing with Santa,” PTA President Mimi Ferrer said administrators told her. “No angels. We can’t even have a star because it can represent a religious system, like the Star of David.”
Kim, 33, did not return a call or e-mail seeking comment.
A memo last month from assistant principal Jose Chaparro suggested a “harvest festival instead of Thanksgiving or a winter celebration instead of a Christmas party.” He urged staff to “be sensitive of the diversity of our families. Not all children celebrate the same holidays.”
Now I know what you’re thinking: throwing end of year ragers is a TFM, right? Well, not in this case. Students and teachers can no longer celebrate or display any imagery related to Santa, Jesus, or Thanksgiving, and no longer recite the pledge of allegiance.
Don’t get me wrong. I understand that not everyone celebrates Christmas and it’s worth respecting that, but how is Thanksgiving a holiday that’s potentially offensive to other religions? How is saying the Pledge of Allegiance offensive to anyone who, you know, lives in America? PS 169 took it so far that basic stars are outlawed because they could represent Christian or Jewish imagery.

Keepin the PC real
10 years ago at 9:44 amJust saw this same story on Fox. They said those kids aren’t allowed to say the Pledge of Allegiance. This PC stuff has gotten way too far out of hand, to the point of being disturbingly ridiculous. I don’t mean to sound like a nut, and I’ll take laps if I do, but the Cristian Right is is in danger of being wiped out of this great country.
10 years ago at 9:48 amHeck, anyone with any semblance of national pride in our country and our Christian traditions is in danger of it.
10 years ago at 9:54 amChristians are plenty strong in this country. Don’t play a victim like some sort of pussy.
10 years ago at 10:52 amNot playing the victim, but censorship of such conservative and American values could very well be a possibility in the future based on trends that have been increasing over the past few decades.
10 years ago at 12:36 pmSeparation of church and state my friend…
10 years ago at 11:37 amWhere is that in the constitution and what does it have to do with a public school?
10 years ago at 12:37 pmThis is so ridiculous I legitimately thought I was reading a satirical article. The amount of times this happens with PC related shit is alarming
10 years ago at 9:50 amWhat annoys me the most is we listen. Nothing against immigrants but instead of assimilating and learning the customs they come in and demand society changes for them. Its worse in Europe. PC crowds have a sense of entitlement like they are owned an apology and society must cater to them. Its literally racism and hatred but against the host culture.
10 years ago at 2:09 pmThank you for posting two articles in a row talking about how liberal pussies and uneducated republicans are still making the news doing stupid stuff.
10 years ago at 9:50 amStop PMSing over there.
10 years ago at 10:06 amAnd next they will start giving kids participation trophies for eating lunch, and wiping their own asses.
10 years ago at 9:52 amFuck you.
10 years ago at 10:01 amHow many kids are not going to choke on turkey bones?
10 years ago at 9:54 amBanning the Pledge of Allegiance. T2015M
10 years ago at 9:55 amNice try
10 years ago at 11:15 amBans America? PC principal too far.
10 years ago at 9:55 am“Be sensitive to the diversity of our families.”
So she tries to accomplish that by banning diversity. hmm…..
10 years ago at 9:58 amIt’s the plan… I found it out man. The acid told me man. They’re making us all the same then they’re going to take our minds from us.. NEXT WERE ALL GOING TO BE ENSLAVED TO THEM!
10 years ago at 11:33 amIf we ban Thanksgiving how will the children learn that Indians taught us to plant corn before we killed them all?
10 years ago at 1:41 pmI’m sorry I thought this was America?
