That attempt at satire was not funny and there was an underlying tone of anti-semitism. |

I don't know if it is anti-semitic, but making fun of those who have the guts to speak out at a public meeting in an anonymous post is cowardly at best. |

What is this even referencing? I don't see any post making fun of the people who spoke? |

An anonymous post slamming the practice of anonymous posting-
now that is pure comic genius!
You were kidding, weren't you?  |

Humor is a matter of opinion, but anti-semitism is a pretty strong charge to levy. Care to explain that one? |

I think the charge of anti-semitism is ridiculous and I have absoluetly no idea how you came to that conclusion.
The post was intended to poke fun at the ridiculousness of the debate, in particular the arguments against the Menorah, such as "it doesn't belong next to the Christmas tree" and "blue Christmas tree lights represent Jewish people".
That said, I offer my apologies to anyone who found my post to be antisemitic. That was certainly not my intention. |

This is a privately owned site. While I did not intend to offend anyone, I respect the fact that the owner has the right to remove a post that they personally find offensive. So, I do not plan to enter a posting-contest with the site's owner. That said, I think the owner should re-read my post and have the integrity to clarify that the post was NOT antisemitic. |

Nope. It's still here in a different thread:

Ever wonder how nice it must be to do what ever you want and if someone didn't agree it must be anti-semitism. The holiday candle display could have been alittle small and not as bright. What was the need to overpower our holiday tree? Was it a sign of anti-christian ? An attack on christians? |

It doesn't overpower the Christmas tree??? Not sure what you're looking at, but the Menorah is huge in comparison to the tree so in my mind that's overpowering. Guess next year we need at 10' tall tree to balance it out... anyone up for donating it? |

I didn't think that Hannukah was a real holiday!
It's NOT mentioned in ANY Hebrew texts.
"Hey, we only have enough oil for one night".
"No.......wait a minute we found some more back here behind the olives".
"We should be okay for a few more days". |
