The pleasure police are even attacking Santa Claus, reports Scott Norvell. The ACLU is sending letters to schools, warning them not to admit any fat men in red suits over the holidays.

After receiving a letter of complaint from the American Civil Liberties Union, the school board there voted to put a stop to the nefarious [Santa related] activities and said it will re-examine how it treats all religious holidays in the schools.

One can hardly wait for the zero tolerance nightmares this will bring up: kids expelled for drawing pictures of Santa; and police raids where students are held at gunpoint while rouge Santa's are hunted down with dogs.
