Sometimes peoples principles are more important and not about Christianity, if its not on your property mind your own business!
You and all others signed to follow those restrictions when you moved here. No one was forced to move here. You can live in Leesburg and put whatever lovely thing you want in your yard. We all signed the paper. It was our CHOICE to live in a deed restricted area.
