Walking Christmas Tree Beats NYC’s Ban

Scott LoBaido is clever man. He found a way to bring Christmas trees back into NYC’s transportation hubs. LoBaido designed and wore a Christmas tree costume!
After being sued for allowing Christmas decorations in bus and ferry teminals, New York City imposed a ban on Christmas trees and other holiday decorations. Scott was not pleased about the ban and managed to find a way to bring the Christmas spirit to the Staten Island Ferry terminal.
You have to love the persistence of some people.
Scott told the NY Daily News that he spent about $400 on the supplies to make his tree costume. Mr. LoBaido’s website tells us that he is a self-taught artist and 4th-generation New Yorker. His artwork focuses on the American flag and in 2010, LoBaido painted the “world’s largest mural” of the Stars and Stripes. The mural covered 150,000 square feet and required 900 gallons of paint.
(As a NY-er, a Christian, and a patriot, this writer appreciates Scott’s work.)

One day, when Obama is gone we will enjoy the Light of Freedom again and forget the period of darkness.

Founded by who? People like Thomas Paine who were deist? Tell me, at what point did our founders seize money from citizens of the United States for “christmas decorations”?
“I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church. All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit.”

“As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion,—as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquility, of Mussulmen,—and as the said States never entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.”

Posted on December 25, 2011 at 4:41amZurich, I hope Obama is the main cause of anti Christian anything, but I fear it is more, and sadly, signs of the times. Once upon a time, society was tolerant, and if a none Christian saw a nativity, Christmas decorations or Christmas trees in the public, and they didn’t prescribe to Christianity, they were at least respectful of other things outside of themselves, but unfortunately, society has become very narcissistic and selfish. It is all about a particular person, or group and their agenda, and anything outside of this is not acceptable. What I see in society is that we are regressing from being descent human beings to a more primitive state. One only needs to see the so called Thanksgiving and Christmas sales and see how savage and inhuman people have become toward each other. The fact that people who are mainly on welfare, are fighting like animals among each other for a 180 dollar pair of Nike shoes say a lot about what our society has become. It ‘s astounding really.

“It is all about a particular person, or group and their agenda, and anything outside of this is not acceptable.”
Okay, so if a Muslim group wanted to have Ramadan decorations hung all over a courthouse you would be in favor of that? Or if some Hindus wanted to have Pancha Ganapati celebrations in your parks that would be a-okay with you? If you answer anything other than “yes, of course” then you are a hypocrite and a bigot.
“The fact that people who are mainly on welfare, are fighting like animals among each other for a 180 dollar pair of Nike shoes say a lot about what our society has become.”
Let me guess: you assume they are mostly on welfare because almost everyone pictured was black, right? And people wonder why people think the rightwing is full of racists. If that was not the root of your assumption then by all means correct me. I would be thrilled to learn what other common feature they all have that leads you to believe they are all on the government dole.

Posted on December 25, 2011 at 7:12amChristmas happens to be a Fedral holiday, and other levels of government follow. Thus, since it is a legal and offiicial holiday it seems to me that the government can decorate for Christmas as it does any other legal and official holiday throughout the calendar year.
One certainly can debate government paying for decorations, but if Christmas decorations are banned then decorations for all holidays throughout the calendar year should be banned.

If so this is NOT what government should be doing. (Let alone opperating an amusement park.) Btw did you miss the part where they banned headgear (including hijabs) on rides?

Key here is “on my property” The Staten Island Ferry Terminal is public property, belonging to a diverse group of citizens, not all of whom share your traditions. For that reason, the choice to not install decorations is the best choice, it saves the decoration dollars and the costs of litigation so all citizens are better served by opting out of the holiday in public spaces.
At YOUR home, at YOUR business, on YOUR car, and in YOUR church you can put up any kind of display you want, you can have dinosaurs next to the manger and Ray Comfort dancing a jig for all I care when it’s on YOUR property. Get that key concept there? YOUR property.
Public property is to be shared by all, including non-believers.

Posted on December 24, 2011 at 12:42pmI say sue NY for not allowing decorations during the holiday. If they capitulated on a suit and banned the decorations, then NY you need to sue for decorations. Make them take it too court and fight for the wishes of many versus the few.

Posted on December 24, 2011 at 11:38amone thing for the new 100% AMERICAN President to do in Jan 2013, an immediate order completely protecting America’s Christmas and Hanukkah traditions. so no anti-American communists/ atheists/muslims can sue to have the sight of them removed.

Posted on December 24, 2011 at 11:43amIt’s very nice, to see some people are still willing to come up with innovative ways to fight the creeping political correctness that’s ruining our nation. However, due to the nature of my sick mind, I have to wonder about the appropriateness of the “package” that he probably has under that tree…lol…….sorry folks…..Merry Christmas.
