I Have Wtinessed the War on Christmas
Advertisements [?]
I walked into my neighborhood grocery store this last week (A Texas chain). Up close and personal to the entry way was a display of toys for Christmas, war toys; plastic armored hummers, camouflage army jeeps, plastic military personnel, everything imaginable on a four sided display.

I picked up my few items and headed for the quick check-out line. I mentioned to the cashier that I understood she was not responsible but that the display of war toys didn't fit into the "Peace on Earth" symbol of Christmas and that I found this disturbing. She innocently misunderstood my message and stood on her tiptoes and looked over her shoulder to the display. She said, "I don't see any Peace on Earth!" (I think she was looking for a Peace on Earth display sign.)

I replied that I didn't see any either and carried my items out of the store.

This is the real war on Christmas.
