    It's worth remembering that Santa Claus can only travel through snow storms because Rudolph has a shiny red nose.https://twitter.com/NRO/status/979400304876769281 …

        Yeah, with soldiers. Wands don’t kill people, spells do; also try saying wingardium leviosa with an AR 15.

        Santa Claus also has the powers of a panopticon. Why are you against a man dressed in red who brings free gifts to the working classes who has the power to watch everything you do at all times? -The National Review

        This is also the place which regularly chains unconscious students under water for school pride activities -- so perhaps not the model we should be following, absurd premises aside.

        It’s worth remembering that children can appear at your door uninvited and expect to receive candy only one night a year and only if costumed.
