Peace Wreath Called Symbol of Satan
Monday, November 27, 2006
A Colorado woman is being vilified for hanging a Christmas wreath in the shape of a peace sign. Lisa Jensen and her husband hung the wreath on their home back on November 15 and are being told to take it down by the homeowners association. They say they've gotten three or four complaints from people who say the sign is insensitive to the soldiers in Iraq and should be taken down. What's even more insane: some say it's a symbol of Satan! It's a freggin peace symbol.
The homeowners association is going to fine Jensen $25 a day for each day the wreath stays up. Jensen says that should add up to $1,000, but she doubts they will be able to force her to pay.
"I honestly wasn't thinking of the Iraq war. Peace is way bigger than not being at war. This is a spiritual thing. I am not going to take it down until after Christmas. Now that it has come to this, I feel I can't get bullied. What if they don't like my Santa Claus?" she said.
Jensen says she's gotten plenty of support for her wreath, which she says was a biblical call for peace and goodwill toward men.
What the hell is wrong with people? With all the insanity that's going on in this world, they have to pick on innocent people who are trying to do some good. She oughta cover her house with these wreaths and ship a couple to the White House while she's at it!
