In my opinion, many folks that are "offended" by the little white crosses, have more issues than a mere violation of the deed restrictions. Many do not even understand the meaning/reasoning behind the display of the white cross in public. I am not going to quote the story that caused the issue to go viral because it is very easy to search the story on the Internet. For those that compare the white cross violation with the idea of displaying a swastika, or some other symbol that they feel one should be offended by, I don't easily offend. What offends one, may not offend another. Like I said, I like the idea of personalizing ones property. Maybe the new districts being built should set a restriction that all residents have only white cars and must park their vehicle in their garage after dark. The village of Valdosta consists of CYV all painted gray. Not my cup of tea, but the villas are occupied with folks that are probably content with their Navy base housing gray mimic. The next village on Tally Ridge consists of CYVs that consist of several different colors. C'mon folks, lets get it together....left, right, left, right, one two three four. We have a lot of nosey folks here, that seem to be easily offended by the actions of others. "But, but, but...." Some find it easy to rely on the old "rules are rules" until they break a rule or law. I find it amusing that we have so many easily offended folks in The Villages.....land of good neighbors....
BTW, I put a little white cross in my front yard. I didn't NEED to display my religious preference. I did it in support of the issue. And yes, I do know what I am supporting. Hint: Look up "White Cross Movement started in Frankenmuth, Michigan in 2008"
Well. Thank you I did not know what the white crosses meant so I looked it up

So the white crosses represent Christian nationalism. That this country was founded on Christian principles and must remain so. The Christian nationalism movement

And Project 2025 is the result and playbook

Not inclusive and very Scary
