By Jon Hurdle PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Santa isn't welcome in Hazleton because he's an illegal immigrant just like all the others the Pennsylvania town is trying to get rid of -- or so someone would have you believe.
A new Web site, http://www.nosantaforhazleton.com, says the town intends to keep Santa out this Christmas because he represents the illegal immigration the town council believes increases crime and burdens local services.
But the site is a hoax, created by someone in a bid to satirize a local law passed in July that has attracted national attention by imposing penalties on businesses and landlords to deter them from hiring or renting rooms to illegal immigrants..."
ASLaN says -- WAY TO GO HAZLETON! Watch the great ad. Punch line:
"This Christmas, Tell Santa He's No Longer Welcome."
(While the reason for this anti-Santa outbreak of sanity is not shared by the founders, board, sponsors, and supporters of ASLaN, the glorious outcome is the same!)
