And another one!

Before the dollnapping, the set-up showed a skinny Santa Claus clutching a blood-soaked knife in his left hand and the severed head — blood pouring from the eyes — in his right. Krupnik called the display a protest of the commercialization of Christmas.


Riiiiiiight. He's a Deep Thinker all right. So concerned about the momentous social issues of our day. Not.

Look, I've seen plenty of kids use one "activist cause" or another as an excuse for obnoxious behavior. Most often, in my opinion, activism is a misguided attempt to impress the opposite sex, and in fact the "activists" seldom have any knowledge of their pet issues that runs any deeper than their bumper-stick slogans or what they parrot from the talking heads on CNN. Mr. Krupnik, however, is 58 years old!

I'll give Mr. Krupnik this, though: He may be using a shallow "activism" as an excuse for obnoxious behavior, but he is not vandalizing anybody else's property, trespassing or assaulting anybody the way many "activists" do. His is a peaceful, albeit icky, protest . I find it kind of ironic that somebody trespassed on his property and stole the head. Way to turn an obnoxious jerk into a martyr for free speech.

Krupnik, 58, said he won't negotiate with the headnappers. "I wouldn't stoop so low," he told the Post.


Stoop so low? I think that ship has sailed.

Check out the dollnappers demands. :)

Somebody is going to go take it down in the middle of the night or something. Nobody wants that crap in their neighborhood.
