My sentiments exactly...Pretty creative use of those zombie babies from Spirit. Also agree that the Dec. 26th deadline is perfect for him. I have seen a few Nightmare Before Christmas scenes and Grinch scenes with no complaints. It is pushing it a bit but I like it.
Sure, sure....BUT anywhere in America you should respect your neighbors; after all, it's the neighborly thing to do.Offensive, BUT here in America, he should have the right to put this up on his own property. Period.
Hilarious line right there, UnOrthodOx.And, when the kids wanted to wrap him up in lights for Christmas, I had to stop and say a dead guy on a broken cross at Christmas might not read so much as 'scarecrow'.
EXACTLY!We either have a First Amendment right, or we don't. Are the neighbors, or even passerbys, going to dictate the perameters of that right? Once Pandora's Box is opened, that's it.
This display might be distasteful to some, and even offensive, but there are no laws or ordinances being broke. Just look away.
IMO (which nobody gives a rats @ss & 2 tootsie rolls about) we have become a nation of whiners and ninnys![]()
And that's YOU. You have these rights.I don't know Punkineater....If I had that much loathing for my neighbors or perhaps a chip on my shoulder thinking no one has a right to dictate to me what I can and cannot do, then I would prolly do that. But I like my neighbors, I respect my neighbors and I like living in my neighborhood which is relaxing and not filled with stressful conflict....
Some people live on stress and are constantly in battle with someone or some thing. Life's too short for that BS......
On the other hand....If my neighbor was a jack wagon....
I might have a propane fueled flaming pentagram on 24/7.....
OK, It wouldn't be propane fueled...prolly just LED.....
Naw....I prolly wouldn't do that either but it would be cool....
Yes, I agree with you to an extent, but when it infringes upon the First Amendment, that's where I draw the line. I kind of liken it to getting bent out of joint by a program on tv-If I don't like it, I turn the channel. I personally wouldn't put up a zombie manger scene either, but the guy IS within his rights.I lean towards "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should." When you are part of a community, I think bad taste trumps law. Where do you draw the line? At your Auschwitz E-Z Bake Oven display? Your July Fourth KKK lighted cross display? Your 9-11 flaming airplane mailbox?
I'm not religious- and the display doesn't offend me personally- but it is in poor taste. I'd not put that in my front yard out of common respect for others in the community. But if my friends and family appreciated the zombie theme - no problem with it up and out of public view.
