Easter Bunny VS Eid!


 By Alison Royer



I mean we can't be giving out school days all willy-nilly.  There's still learnin' to do!  Let's see…we've got the 2 weeks to celebrate the birth of Jesus and then the 2 weeks when he came back.  And what about Flag Day?!  Oh now I have to give up Flag Day because the terrorists want an extra day a year to build bombs?!

"At Tuesday’s meeting and afterward, several Muslim leaders called for fairness as they noted Montgomery’s lineup of Jewish and Christian school holidays, including Yom Kippur, Rosh Hashanah, Christmas and Good Friday".

Listen, no one is more upset about the Jews getting to celebrate their "holidays" than we are.  I mean how many New Years do they need?  I submit we revoke the Jewish holidays so that they can feel equal to the Muslims.  In the meantime, I think we should focus on the holidays that matter like Labor Day.

"Their testimony followed several months of effort to push for greater recognition of the Islamic holidays, particularly Eid al-Adha, which falls in mid-October next year and honors the prophet Abraham for his willingness to sacrifice his son for God".

Ugh…creepy.  No.

“I’d like to see them on Christmas Day or Easter or Yom Kippur — how would they feel if their children had to leave their home, the warmth, and go to school?” she asked. “How would they feel if they were in our shoes?”

You mean your bomb shoes?  Probably pretty bad.

“My wife is a Christian, and she assures me that Easter Monday is not a real holiday,” he said. “So if the Montgomery County school system can find a way to justify that, we feel that most certainly closing the schools on Muslim holidays is warranted.”

NOT A REAL HOLIDAY?!  Everyone knows that the Monday after Easter is the day the Easter Bunny stocks up on candy for the following year.  Therefore, we all need to be home with our families in order for the Easter Bunny to have full access to stores.  Geez!  You talk about equality and fairness yet once again the Muslims are trying to strip us of our freedoms.  I refuse to relinquish the special time my family spends together on the infamous Monday after Easter.  And if you even mention Columbus Day…I will slay you.  Happy holidays!
