Yard art
 
Why can you put atrocious yard art out but not a cross?

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet".

Dunno. "Atrocious" is pretty subjective. I've been paying a bit more attention to that these last few days and have seen everything from pink flamingos, praying concrete angels, a rather large statue of the Buddha, Several BVM depictions (neighbor back home put one in her yard. Neighbors dubbed it "Our Lady of the Bathtub"), a couple of stars (6-pointed), a concrete statue of a Dalmatian wearing a hat, several gazing balls, a nativity statuette deal that seems more-or-less permanent, a painted concrete tiger (maybe lion--hard to tell w/faded paint and all), etc. etc., as well as the white crosses. I was not much offended by any of it.

Too many professionally offended people around, unfortunately.

Most "yard art" is prohibited, as well...

Read your deed restrictions...

A pretty legitimate question, IMO. There is a court case pending regarding the crosses that is going to have far-reaching ramifications no matter which way it goes.

Two more items to add to the "not much offended" list: something that looked like a Native American totem, and a depiction of a male dog whizzing on a tree.

Clearly a troll. This thread has been posted many times.

It becomes my cross is bigger than your cross. There was a home with three crosses on his or her lawn.

Simple solution put it isn YOUR backyard.

Definitely bait!

You can until you get reported.

Most people like the deed restrictions.

Everyone thinks they have excellent taste.


But they don't.

If it is the front of your yard you can’t if you live below 466. They have different rules above 466 stemming from the lawsuit.

Totally agree. Would be A solution. Frankly however it is nice to see some individuality expressed outside homes. Just need to know where to draw the line….and everyone draws those lines differently. A conundrum one might say

It's all so subjective IMO. I like to look at other people's quirky stuff myself, but seeing crosses on lawns makes me think someone was buried there, which I'm sure would be illegal, at least I hope!

Because the TROLLS need something to complain about

Life is good when one has the time and energy to debate the placement of little white yard crosses.
