Peace on Earth - Not in this Colorado Sub Division

A Home Owner's Association in Pagosa Springs, Colorado has threatened a resident of the sub division with $25.00 a day fine for putting up a Christmas Wreath with "PEACE ON EARTH" sign. The sign according to some is an anti-Iraq war protest or a symbol of Satan.

According to CNN
Lisa Jensen said she wasn't thinking of the war when she hung the wreath. She said, "Peace is way bigger than not being at war. This is a spiritual thing."

Jensen, a past association president, calculates the fines will cost her about $1,000, and doubts they will be able to make her pay. But she said she's not going to take it down until after Christmas.

"Now that it has come to this I feel I can't get bullied," she said. "What if they don't like my Santa Claus?"
(Update: The Homeowner's Association has backed off from their threat of $25.00/day fine. PEACE ON EARTH retuns to PAGOSA SPRINGS)
