Freedom of Tackiness
A woman in Colorado says she was
evicted from her apartment for keeping her Easter decorations up too long.
I think I’m leaning toward her side, even though from the brief
description it sounds as though her display was unutterably tacky,
simply because I want to live in the sort of country where people can
show the world just how much taste they lack. And because tacky is
fun, in a tacky sort of way.
But the bit that caught my eye was:
“An Easter decoration is a religious statement and should be protected — even if it is just bunnies,” said her attorney, John Pineau.
Bunnies are a religious display? Who knew?
