This guy needs to learn that holding one's feelings in can do some damage to your brain.

At the very least, he needs to cut back on his caffein intake.

Dennis Leary has made a career of doing that rant. 

All concern for his health aside, I agree with him and I don't like the anti-christian sentiments we've witnessed the past several years.  This is the U.S., the land of freedom and tolerance for all beliefs.  AND before you get started, I don't go to church at all. 

... attacking a christmas tree is hilarious... not even a nativity scene at a government facility... a freaking tree.  Watch out Rudolph, you're next!

A good rant is an art form.

That may be, but if you are ranting about something so utterly pointless and inconsequential, especially when there are actually rantworthy things happening in the world, it becomes less of an art form and more of an exercise in ignorant douchebaggery and verbal masturbation.

But I don't know, maybe christmas trees are more important than genocide, poverty, hunger, slavery, and human trafficking.

I think his point has a little larger scope than Christmas trees.  He is wondering why tolerance doesn't work both ways.

Besides, there are plenty of ranters and rant topics to go around.  No need to rank and prioritize them. ;)

I had to hit pause after about 20 seconds.

He has a point though.

All sickly, white, appeasing, apologist, left wing, cringing, politically correct, knob-ends, need to start standing up for their own culture

I can't stand this crap!!
