Saint Nicolas, Northern European saint from hundreds of years ago... yeah I'd say he's got to be white.

Liberal white guilt, cannot have a Santa be white. You do not see us trying to take over Kwanzaa....

 

[Sun Devil]

Why would the above racist (Storm X) care about the pigmentation of a fictional character?

uh... a white FBI agent invented it. thought you should know...seems it turned up as a holiday in Africa about the same time it showed up here per my African friends.

Studying both sides, it falls on how you determine "white".

Ask a Leftist if an American is white, they will say no, Americans were Red.

Ask a Rightist if Americans are white they will say "hell yea".

Ask a Leftist if Middle eastern people are white. They will generally break down the origin.

Ask a Rightist if a Middle Eastern person is white, they will probably put a gun to your head and ask you why you are a friend of theirs.

America is like anything else. It's a work in progress. Eventually Americans will realize that we all came from lands that were brutal to become free. Maybe even the freedom fighters will see that. . . . (doubt it)

I don't think Meygan gives a shit about your picture any more than most Americans care.

Santa is a made up person; he/she/it can be anything you want it to be. Just don't come whining to the media if you cannot explain to your kids (dunces in training) why others think Santa is a fat old white dude.
