Backing Down

CNN:

DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- A subdivision has withdrawn its threat of $25 daily fines against a homeowner who put a Christmas wreath shaped like a peace sign on the front of her home.

Homeowner Lisa Jensen told The Associated Press on Monday that the board of directors of the Loma Linda Homeowners Association had apologized, called the incident a misunderstanding and had withdrawn its request for the wreath's removal.

Like hell it was a misunderstanding. Some residents went so far as to call the symbol "satanic." No, they backed down because they looked like a bunch of ignorant jackasses. Which, of course, they are.
