Well, they've been waging the war against the War against Christmas for years now. And that Santa dude has been at the forefront of the War on Christmas with the way he steals the Baby Jesus' thunder. So I guess in Republican World, arresting Santa is a "victory" just like subverting the will of the voters of NC is supporting democracy.
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.

These fuckers make my head hurt!
If Jesus was there he'd have been arrested too. And those that claim to be Christians would cheer! It is a crazy, hate-filled world.
