A woman in southwestern Colorado hung this wreath on the side of her house for the holidays. I’m sure we all recognize the peace symbol and considering the well-known holiday phrase, “Peace on earth, good will to men”, one would think the message was quite clear.

But noooooo. Not her neighborhood’s homeowners association. They’re fining her $25 a day until she takes it down. Why you ask? Some of her neighbors complained because they have children serving in Iraq and also believe the wreath is a symbol of Satan. No shit, they really said that. I don’t make this stuff up.

Once again the minority seems to be able to dictate what the majority does, because only three residents complained and it’s a 200 home subdivision.

Lisa Jensen says, “Peace is way bigger than not being at war. This is a spiritual thing.” She calculates that the fines will add up to about $1,000, but has no intentions of removing the wreath.

The homeowners association sent Ms. Jensen a letter stating that residents were offended by the sign and they will not allow signs, flags, etc. that are considered divisive.

What we have hear is a failure to communicate. Some morons confused the peace symbol with an upside down cross or an inverted pentagram and no one has explained that to them?
