COULD IDAHO POLICE MAKE A REAL CASE FOR ARRESTING SANTA?

Whether or not Santa is breaking the law is debatable. If you're among those of us who received a lump of coal in our stocking when we were kids, you're probably more inclined to answer yes. Even if he jipped us at one point or another, we still need to exercise objectivity and an innocent until proven guilty mindset.

Following the regulations set forth by Idaho lawmakers and the Feds makes for a safe and merry Christmas season. So, let's all remember to get along and stay on the "nice list" this year!

Merry Christmas, Santa. May you evade Idaho law enforcement for another year 😏
