Keep Out

Is the holiday spirit in conflict with new anti-immigration legislation being passed in small towns and larger municipalities all across the nation?

Its web-based rhetoric suggests that consistent citizens will bar Santa, a blatantly undocumented worker from the foreign North, from their homes and businesses this Christmas.
