Minnesota courthouse has no room for holiday plants
A decision to banish red poinsettias from the Ramsey County, Minn., Courthouse as a Christian symbol is inciting holiday discord, since nobody there has anything better to do. The metal detectors installed at the courthouse entrance after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks left no space for the holiday plants that traditionally lined the dark, cavernous Memorial Hall, said Ramsey County Manager Paul Kirkwold. There wasn't enough room for Christmas music, either.
