In standard X-Files fashion, it was creepy. When my husband and I started looking for our first home, the very first we looked at was in an association. Driving through that neighborhood was like being transported right into that episode of the X-Files. People stared at you funny going down the street because they [i]knew[/i] you didn't belong. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. I think this Kearns guy is on a power trip. Associations don't have to be ruled by a democracy. What is stated in the covenant is law. I think it's sad that there are people so willing to hand over their freedoms for a little convenience and (perceived) security. I think the whole progression towards people moving into these types of communities is a symptom of a greater problem. But I think that's for another thread. The peace symbol as satanic? That's the first time I've ever heard that one. Makes me wonder if those that complained have Christmas trees in their houses and know the origin of their holiday symbol. I have to admire her fortitude - $1000 is an expensive wreath, it's too bad though she's paying the price for someone else's stupidity. [edit] in case anyone is intersted, here are a couple of links on the origin of the peace symbol, I know I learned something new.
