thought to be the person most in the world that hates Christmas, but I discovered that fortunately, there are others whose aversion to this unbearable holiday is like mine ...
What can I say, some news will warm the heart!
AUCKLAND (NEW ZEALAND) - Warning, do not let children read this news might shock you. At least if you believe in the fairy tale of Santa Claus. The fact has happened in Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand. Forty people dressed in the traditional red and white cap, apparently drunk, have wild robbing stores, assaulting the security guards and urinating from the bridge: three of them were arrested. The news is reported by the New Zealand Herald, explaining that the gesture would be a strange protest against the rampant consumerism that infects so many people (who can afford it) under the Christmas holidays. The event organizer, Alex Dyer, had warned the demonstration would only stop when someone was arrested.

Police said other details pleasant: there were "Daddy" who threw beer bottles, one tried to climb to the top d ' mooring a cruise ship, others were engaged in the destruction of Christmas trees. In the chaos a guard was hit in the face by a fist. "They came, they said" Merry Christmas "and then they served," said Herald the clerk of a store. The problem - says a sergeant - was to recognize the Santa Claus 'bad' from the good ones. Indeed in these days of fancy dress red and white is not really original. The Herald says he is convinced that in this performance there is a hand debunking of the group called Santarchy or Santacon, the American movement that for ten years organized forms of protest anti-Christmas, with street entertainment and drinks group.
