Wow, it started out as cross envy or fear to flag envy or fear.
If the deed restrictions say you can't have it, then technically you cannot have it. Not that I care because I have one in my yard and no one is going to complain. If the cross scare you, please stop by and tell me so. I am sure that depending on the time of day, I might care what a stranger thinks of my yard.
You all worry about the simplest things.
No one has even mentioned what these particular little crosses represent. I am not going to tell you the story of these particular crosses, because many of you would not care and most of you that have them probably already know the story.
It is rather pathetic or humorous that the same folks that complain about the tiny crosses are the same ones that drive down a street past numerous lawn violations without even noticing or just not caring. But, a cross is as fearful to you as garlic to a vampire.
Life is full of obstacles much larger and serious than this little matter. Like someone else suggested, I do not need my little cross to prove my faith. I do not need the Bible or even church to prove my faith. You either believe or you don't.
Whether or not it matters, I personally enjoy counting the little white crosses on the streets I travel. It would probably bother me to see little silver swastikas displayed on several lawns, and I would probably move away from such a neighborhood. But, I would not complain to the authorities about it. I still believe in the Constitution over the right of a community to ban certain objects/subjects.
Take them down or keep them, makes no difference to me. Help yourself and quit complaining over the simple things when there is much more going on in the world that really matters.
