That's true but I doubt if this is the case. Not to get political, but if this were some kind of Islamic art I can see that happening. But with a statue of the Virgin Mary not so much. I may also be based on some other kind of animosity rather than religious. I mean the person who reported this couple's placing of the statue.

I did see what seemed to be a group checking out flag displays on my Loop. Not sure whom they thought they could complain to however. This was near Memorial Day. They seemed upset by one of the small flags that had fallen and gotten a bit wet.
