So whatever people want to do with a Christmas tree is really OK and in the meantime you really need to get over it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-79652881945007697612011-12-09T23:23:45.568-08:002011-12-09T23:23:45.568-08:00The tree was put up by the owner/employees of Mart...The tree was put up by the owner/employees of Martha's not by the city.

A Christmas tree with a Jewish star (Star of David) at the top of the tree instead of an angel or a regular ornamental star is not appreciated by me as a Christian. I am sure it is not appreciated by those who practice Judaism as well. An angel or star is placed at the top to symbolize the host of angels or the Star of Bethlehem from the Nativity. If the city wanted to do this correctly, they would have placed a Christmas tree and Hannukah tree side-by side, or a menorah decoration next to the Christmas tree. This is offensive, shows ignorance and disrespect to different religions and its symbols, and needs to be taken down or redecorated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-59406692202158929392011-12-05T20:54:33.758-08:002011-12-05T20:54:33.758-08:00nothing like message boards to bring out the best ...nothing like message boards to bring out the best in neighborsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-15511271024638528842011-12-05T20:09:56.704-08:002011-12-05T20:09:56.704-08:00Who's the bitter one, anon @7:32?

Hardly has any credentials to be qualified.<br /><br />Still think he's bitter over the failure to close off Noe St. to make that stupid so called plaza. He's a sore loser at that, and really doesn't understand urban design issues nor urban traffic patterns at all.<br /><br />Thanks for your comment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-22958065316324142212011-12-05T18:52:03.410-08:002011-12-05T18:52:03.410-08:00Who cares what Murphy thinks!!
