HOA's have their plus's and also their minus's. I wish they were more strict on somethings but not so stupid on others. This one I have to say is STUPID! I would buy my entire family t-shirts with the peace sign on it or better yet make everyone one and make sure it looks like a wreath and I would wear it everyday till after Christmas. I would paint my car with peace sign wreath's and every window pane with peace sign wreaths just to prove a point.

This is from the 60's? as far as the symbol some people just want to ***** about everything.

If it were me, I would either, (A) pay the $25/day for a week or two and replace the ornament with a MUCH larger version (in order to get my money's worth).

Or else (B) I would take it down and put up some ugly TV dishes where federal OTARD law supercedes the local homeowners asssociation rules. I might even put up a dish with a special wire antenna (for local channels) that is shaped a specific way to improve the signal!

Peace frog

This lady should be able to place here decorations as she pleases. This PC crap has gone to far. I do not agree with her ideas but I do think she has the right to express them if she likes.

I'm glad you think she should be able to hang her wreath but
you don't agree with her "ideas" which ideas are that ? Peace on Earth, Good Will ??? Just curious .. unless she has come out and said something against the "war" or something more specific.. then sure everyone's got an opinion.. but I thought this was a christmas wreath ??

which ideas are that ?

That idea is a upside down broken cross in the name of peace. Kind of like the hippies in the 60's and 70's. My opinion only she can do what she likes
will not cause me to loose any sleep. Peaceniks will never get what they want just more white wash on the problem.
Merry Christmas
Isaac

I had peace signs on the grips of my colt .45acp for years. That was a shock to all the people that witnessed a cocked and locked .45 and it had bright green peace signs on each grip.

This is the federal law that says that a homeowners association cannot restrict an owner from putting up a directv or dish network system, even if "dishes" are prohibited in the homeowners covenants. Same goes for Internet antennas and dishes. If you ever saw a nice condo or high rise down in florida with a dish hung out on the balcony railing, it is this law that protects the condo owner's rights to do so. (But the condo owner has no rights to put the dish up on the roof or any space not under the lease)

Chances are that if you have a yard to begin with, then there is no homeowners association to begin with, which is common for townhouses and condos more than residential areas. There are exceptions of course such as "gated communities". If you pay annual "homeowners dues" then you have someone to give the finger to. Otherwise, consider yourself lucky.
