[Namron] SCA and Tecumseh

[Bella]

Gonna have to agree with Lyric and pretty much everyone else. The more control these people are given, the more they are gonna take. Having lived in Pink and done alot of shopping in Tecumseh and Shawnee I don't have a problem imagining it happening.
 
I realize that you have to live there, but if it's that bad, is it really living? Just a thought.

what ever happened to people's rights.....

Dont let them push you around Duncan. The advice
given by everyone one this forum is valid. You have a
right to everything you mentioned. It is your
property - not your neighbors. (this is no different
from some one taking offense to a pink plastic
flamingo, or christmas decorations)

How silly for ignorant, uneducated people to want to
harass you. Personally - I think it would be a very
good idea to inform the local "officials" about what
the SCA is so that they wont bother you about it,
allthough I find the fact that you may HAVE to
horribly distastefull. What gets me...is that other
people have the nerve to complain to the police about
your lawn decorations, or the fact that you use YOUR
property to do what YOU want. Welcome to the USSA...

Good Luck Duncan - I hope the politicly correct
thought police are put in thier place and leave you
the hell alone.
