The Butler Elementary School PTA in Belmont reversed the decision to cancel a field trip to see "The Nutcracker" after some parents claimed it had questionable content.
The trip to see the famous ballet has been a tradition at the school for years, but apparently some felt the trip was improper because there is a Christmas tree on the stage.
The issue came to a head at a PTA meeting Tuesday night. A source said some people were told they were being discriminatory if they supported their kids going to "The Nutcracker."

There are nutcases everywhere. Remember the parents who wanted the Harry Potter books banned because of witchcraft?

That is insane. I am an Atheist and I cannot believe people are so easily offended by everything under the sun. This country IS 80% Christian!

So ridiculous. As I was leaving school, the principal and secretary were putting up the school Christmas tree. The kids about went nuts.
