Jesus shooting Santa display causes controversy

I was going to make a Moive about Hunting down this So called Santa Pedo pagan.

This is funny.

Bravo!!!!

I really agree with the artist. Even though people would find it to be "morbid" and "disturbing," it's just art and expression. This is another way of telling people to not lie to kids about Santa.

I like flickering lights in my bushes personally. no one gets offended.

mmm...I am not sure if I would call it art...to me it is simply someone trying to make a point...totally depends who is looking though, but I think the guy did not do it to try and impress artists.

Jesus is blowing away santa, right, so why would christains be upset at this?

dude, i dig it.

A macho Jesus with a large gun is always funny in my book. It's the Hollywood Jesus.

I love it! lol.

these same parents that are "concerned about the kids" need to shut the hell up. probably overfeed their children and leave them in front of the TV anyway. people will always find something to bitch about, christmas is nothing but commercialism (and it never has been anything else except in the minds of the nostalgic) and if there was a jesus he thinks america is the most hilarious group of shitshows imaginable.

Santa Claus is Saint Nickolaus. A full on catholic saint. I suppose it could be argued that it is anti-catholic hate speech.

The fact is though, it's no more tasteless than your average south park episode. If they remove one they'd have to remove the other too.

The whole concept of Jesus on a shotgun murder rampage says so much about how little this man understands his own religion. It's like the theosophic equivalent of stripping naked, sticking a couple bathroom plungers up your nose, and then commencing to draw on the walls with your own poo.

What can you even do with a man this ignorant?

I don't think this really has anything to do with the fact that Jesus is holding a gun, it's just the fact that parents are going to have to explain the point of christmas to their children.

In the end it's private property and if they really have a problem they're going to have to go through all the proper channels which, by the time that is over, Christmas will be too.

I like the display, and i'm a liberal, and a jew. I never understood the point of santa as we know it. I know the historical significance, but christians have taken it too far and the message of what christmas was supposed to bring has been lost.

the best display ever!!!! bah humbug bitches!!!!

I think both Jesus and Santa should have been lynched in a tree.
Parents lie to children with the Santa bs and then society wonders why there are so many atheists. Lie to them about some fat man in a red suit that seems to only give gifts to affluent children while others go hungry. It's only a few steps to have the same lack of belief in god.

Most 'christians' I know are so full of crap it makes me sick. Santa only perpetuates the commercialism and spending money.

I think we should have a rebellion against this day.

I actually dislike getting gifts, especially unthoughtful ones. I should be thankful?
Spend the same money and feed a hungry family for a few days.

Have some class people. There must be a better way of getting this point across.

they are worried about the kids, bullshit. they want to perpetuate the lies, as they are core our way of life. the holidays are great for this training; the longer a kid believes in santa the funnier it is. a child must learn quick that it's all make believe, pretending you don't see the truth. once "make believe" is established the establishment can say and do anything.
the "artist" is smarter than his neighbors and more honest.

Let Jesus and Santa shoot it out - winner take all.

"I know it's freedom of speech..."

That's a start. Now start respecting freedom of speech, and SHUT UP ALREADY!

this is funny, and it raises a good point. the thing is not everbody minds the commercialization of christmas, and santa makes kids happy, so although i like the art-work itself and am all for freedom of expression i think the piece would be better suited to a mueseum or other location, rather than across the street from a school bus stop.

I like it, and I'm liberal...I like guns too.

just read this about christmas.

you'll learn something...

peace n love.

these two have always had 'equal time' PR issues.

I'm a liberal and I love this display. It not only shows how Fundamentalist Christians think, it gets rid of that annoying fat ass in the red suit.

"is it art and freedom of expression?" Yes it is!

This is totally hilarious!

Nice use of; " Freedom of Expression".

The two things liberals hate the most; Jesus, and guns, awesome!
