UK - School bans buns deemed offensive

Look who the school claims they dont' want to offend.

Jackson defended her action.

"Obviously, the hot cross bun is a celebration of Easter but it is not Easter yet," she told the paper.

"The cross is there in recognition of the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, but for our students who are Jehovah Witnesses hot cross buns are not part of their beliefs. We decided to ask to have the cross removed in respect of their beliefs."

The Star quoted one observer, who did not wish to be named: "I have never heard of anything so ridiculous. Since when have hot cross buns been offensive?"


She's afraid of offending Jehovahs Witnesses? When's the last time they slit someone's throat or set off an IED?
