Yeah. I read this before. It just seems stupid to me. I mean, if you try hard enough you can make ANYTHING offensive. I would think, due to the fact that Santa's "HO HO HO" catch phrase has been around longer than the what the new street definition has, it would be obvious to almost any idiot that Santa is not out to offend anyone. THE FAT MAN WAS HERE FIRST! Leave him alone!

I'm offended by his red clothes- it's the color of scary blood! Ahhhhh!

And his travels through chimneys are clearly prejudiced against chimney sweeps!

Haha, I heard about this a few days ago...I laughed so hard. Red though, what the hell? We as people can wear red, but Santa can't.

That's dumb. Little kids don't know what a ho is and making Santa say ha ha ha.

It just takes tradition out of Santa.

The problem with this is that it forces "ho" to be a bad word.
It doesn't have to be.

This is the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. Its not like Santa is yelling "Prostitute, Prostitute, Prostitute." What is the world coming to?

It sad to see anyone take the time to start a campaign to rewrite history because trashy modern pop-culture has begun to clash with proper history in such a way.

They have way to much time on their hands.

Australia seems to be so amazingly on edge about offending anyone. Weren't they the ones who banned Barbie for being degrading towards women? It's a foot talk plastic doll you fuckheads, don't take shit so seriously.

That whole idea is a load of crap, though it does remind me of a cartoon I once saw of Santa on the witness stand with a lawyer in his face yelling "Did you or did you not, on the morning of December 21st call my client, not once but three times, a ho?" I laughed my little ass off at that. In any case I am totally against the whole ideal of Santa but this is pure bullshit and these people need to get a freaking life.

Apparently some places in the US are also trying to change it to, "Ha ha ha". That is LAME.

There are sooo many other things that can be thought of as perverted in relation to Christmas: candy cane, cookies, milk, presents, wrapping, naughty/nice, North Pole, and toys, just to name a few.

Are they going to ban/change all of those words too?

Now if santa said, hey baby it'd nice if you were naughty and stopped sucking on that candy cane, bring your sexy cookies over here and make some milk come from my north pole while played with your toys and presents.

Now then you have a legitimate complant

I wouldn't be surprised if this was one of the causes for this crap.
