Woman faces fines for wreath peace sign - Yahoo! News:
DENVER - A homeowners association in southwestern Colorado has threatened to fine a resident $25 a day until she removes a Christmas wreath with a peace sign that some say is an anti-Iraq war protest or a symbol of Satan.

Some residents who have complained have children serving in Iraq, said Bob Kearns, president of the Loma Linda Homeowners Association in Pagosa Springs. He said some residents have also believed it was a symbol of Satan. Three or four residents complained, he said.
I don't know...I see this

and I'm sure that I feel offended...really.

"satan?"  did this people totally forget the 60s ever happened?

I'm pretty upset to see that the entire board can be fired by its president, just because they don't agree with his feelings on a matter.

Yeah, tinpot dictator much? That raises a whole 'nother red flag.

In the meantime, just what carols are those anti-satanists going to be singing this holiday, I wonder? No Silent Night, not with the line "sleep in heavenly peace." No Harking Herald Angels with "Peace on Earth, goodwill to men." Ect.

If the president of the HOA can fire the rest of the board, it isn't a real HOA.
