Another "WTF?!" Brought to you by the AFA

Those wacky folks at the AFA are selling "Christmas Crosses" for front yard display this holiday season.

Some thoughts:

1. Um, Christmas is about the birth of Christ, not his death. That's Easter.

2. If someone in my neighborhood (or any neighborhood for that matter) put such a display up, I'd think they were part of the Klan. I mean look at it! It looks like a burning cross! Yikes!

You've almost sold me...do I get a second one if I order in the next 30 minutes?

I went to their website, so I could suggest that maybe not enough time has passed since the Civil Rights Movement for light-up crosses to be a good idea. Didn't realize they're based in our home state.

Hey, if anyone else wants to let them know these crosses are not only tacky but potentially racially divisive, here's the URL:

Merry Kristmas! Next they'll be making wreaths in the shape of nooses? Blinded by their own headlights!
