pop-up all over the villages.

Display them in your home. I wonder who benefits from their sale?

Why do folks have to display the American flag? After all, we are all Americans, right? Why do we have to see holiday displays throughout the year? Do we have to broadcast our beliefs or following of holidays?
Get over it folks. Sure, deed restrictions.

I am a none religious liberal from New Yorker.

In my neighborhood here in The Villages there is a home with a flag proudly displaying the star of David and another home has a large flag promoting Trump.

One I do not understand this compulsion of displaying someone’s beliefs, but I also do not understand the big fuss. Neither of these things offend me, I believe people have become too intolerant.

What church is making money from them? They are free.

Oh please! Lets have them line up and turn the house into a food bank for all. Then lets see how much you feel it should be allowed

They don't bother me personally however the rules of TV are designed to keep it pristine for all. I accept the rules and put up with the ones I don't like....If you don't like the rules here then go live somewhere else.

I am amazed. 4 pages about the little white crosses. Some love em some are offended by them. If they offend you and that is the worst thing in your life you should be grateful for a good life. If you are bored and post about subjects that are not helpful or trying to instigate arguments, I would suggest getting a hobby

Totally agree! I understand the need for deed restrictions and I am glad they are there for the most part. But deed restrictions that violate your constitutional rights cannot stand. The first amendment guarantees you the free exercise thereof with regard to your religion. It doesn’t say except if a deed restriction doesn’t like it! If there is a deed restriction with regard to a cross in your yard it should be with regard to the size of it, not whether you can have it or not. Obviously we would not want someone putting a 15 foot high cross in their front yard. Common sense needs to be applied

The white crosses are made by volunteers who use their own money. The Churches make no money on them. They are free. Maybe if you don’t display one you are afraid to show your Christianity but don’t complain because someone has the courage to show his true colors.

If you have to have a little white cross in your yard to feel like a good person, maybe you need to think about that.
