They "signed up" to have a willy-nilly made-up, ambiguous, vague, and selectively enforced definition of "sign" v. "decoration" infringe upon their holiday expression? Right.

So why wait to enforce the "rules" until some damn pagan complains about the word "Jesus"....let's just be real here this wasn't about rules at all this was about capitulating to some left wing Communist complaining about something they don't like or agree with.

I'm a straight white Christian male taxpayer that survived 8 years of the Obama regime. Don't try to tell me that I don't know how it feels to be persecuted

Go wherever you like. While not a theocracy, This was most assuredly a nation of Christians, and it was their Christian charity that let other people in, although not much wisdom in it as everyone can clearly see now.

Some of the biggest assholes in HOAs are lily white soccer Mom types who have nothing better to do than to bitch about the color of someone’s mailbox or the “type” of decor that can be used.

I have a good friend whose old HOA only allows them to use “Classic holiday decor” like live wreaths and pine. The neighborhood is about as conservative and white as it gets.

that may not be the same level of persecution Jesus endured, but that is still persecution, genius.

White Hate has been on the rise for several years now and it has been encouraged by the Democratic Party, news media, entertainment industry, etc..

I'm going out on a limb here and guessing that you don't understand what the religious climate was in those days. Christian is not Christian is not Christian. The differences in Christianity is the reason we even have an America as it is today. And it wasn't "Christian charity" that "let" people in.

How are they being persecuted? How are you persecuted for your faith? I'd like to hear examples.

Oh bullshite. I’ve seen them complain because Christmas decorations look too “tacky”. Non-Christians in an HOA don’t have the corner on being hypocritical assholes.

That's why I'll never live with an HOA. Until you pay my mortgage you won't get any say in my property.
