Update: Police say woman groped Santa

FTA:

A 33-year-old woman was charged with fourth-degree sexual assault Saturday after allegedly groping a man playing Santa Claus at the Danbury Fair mall...

The mall Santa told police that Lamy touched him inappropriately while sitting on his lap.

"The security officer at the mall said Santa Claus has been sexually assaulted," Michael said.

My sources tell me that Santa was happy to see all the children for the rest of the day.

There´s one incident lower in the link that says that a Santa lost his job for saying "Ho ho ho" in Sydney Australia.. I remember seeing that somewhere else on the net. All the Australian Santas had gotten a warning not to say "Ho" since it´s too close to the word "Hoe" which means prostitute... That´s just bizzare.. Children doesn´t know the meaning of "Hoe", nor should they... They´re children for crying out loud! I guess that "Anti-sexualizing the world" went a little overboard there!

Children should know the meaning of hoe. It's a garden tool.

Oh wait, I forgot about the war against agriculture.

That claim is garbage. Australian's don't even really use "ho", but rather "hooker" is the more common term. It's rare to even run across the term "ho", let alone any kind of stupid action for using it. The article says the Santa himself made the claim he was fired for that reason, which smells like bull to me.

I used to greet people with the term "Hey ho" until too many people started to take offence. I'm wondering when they will redub Snow White and the 7 Dwarves.

On the other hand, "he rode his own ho, and now he has to lie in it" now makes sense, and the world is a richer place for it. Try to see these things from both sides.

You just know those dwarves took advantage of her.
