The US city of Bloomington in Indiana has renamed Good Friday and Columbus Day as "Spring Holiday" and "Fall Holiday" to be more "inclusive".
Mayor John Hamilton said the move would "better reflect cultural sensitivity in the workplace", local media said.
Bloomington is a traditionally liberal city. Its county gave Hillary Clinton 58.6% in the presidential election.

Indiana is solidly conservative. Republicans increased their majority in the last election.
Bloomington is home to Indiana University, it is a liberal college town.

The disease is spreading - the (Democratic) Mayor of my state's capitol city has publically declared that he will not support any Federally-mandated actions against illegal immigrants by instructing his PD to ignore any such excepting felonious illegal immigrants.
This, after the US Gov't had declared that all Federal funds will be cut off from ANY such "sanctuary cities".

Graduated from IU in 1987. Never looked back. The leftist slime coat the place. Fortunately, there were still some conservatives there when I went to college.
