Do you know of any documented cases of Attacks on Christians?
We've had stores saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas", Nativity scenes being removed from Christmas displays, lawsuits aiming to remove "10 Commandments" monuments from public buildings, and lawsuits aiming to remove crosses and references to God from various places and documents.
Does anyone have concrete examples of these with supporting evidence? Links to accredited news reports, letters from store Managers, letters or addresses from Mayors, etc.? Digital video or pictures?
Please post or email me what you have, especially examples from the USA and the rest of North America and NATO.

Answers:
You should rephrase your question as it sounds like you're asking about physical violence against Christians, which is a completely different thing than someone not saying "Merry Christmas."
The only thing I could find on the internet was that in the year 1099, christians marched into Jeruselem & killed about 30,000 jews & muslims.
No documented cases of attacks ON christians. Tons about attacks BY christians.
All of the examples you cited are ways of our society becoming more inclusive and accepting of other religions and lifestyles, and of public institutions actually following the law mandating a separation of church and state -- not of Christians being discriminated against.
Just because a store wants to appeal to ALL of its customers by saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" doesn't do anything to stop you from celebrating the birth of Christ. Have you thought about how Jewish people feel when they see a "Merry Christmas" sign? And they actually have really been discriminated against, unlike your whiny pleas for documentation so you can be the martyr.
If you want to read the Bible and the Ten Commandments, do what most of us do -- read them at home. Other non-Christians don't want your religion shoved down their throats, and they have that right.
You're only getting pissed because it happens to be your religion. What if Muslims or Hindus wanted the Koran to be displayed in the courthouse? Or have the Hindu Festival of Lights as a mandatory activity for your kids at school?
Get over yourself.
The Bible and Religious books are full of accounts where the Romans in B. C. fed Christians to lions and brutalized them in other ways as well. OH! NOT A CHRISTIAN, then read your history. Countries and groups in the name of religion have persecuted Christians for eons. This country was founded because of religious persecution and our Constitution guarantees your right to believe as you wish and not how the Government wishes. Check out the grossly misquoted 1st Amendment.
