WWL - AM870 | FM105.3 | News | Talk | Sports - Cops Tell D. Springs Woman To Take Down ''offensive'' Christmas Lights
A Denham Springs woman got a visit from the cops after nearby residents were offended by her somewhat unorthodox Christmas lights display. Homeowner Sarah Henderson intentionally fashioned the lights on her roof (photo, above) to look like a human hand "flipping the bird."  Neighbors called police to complain, and Denham Springs Police Corporal Shawn Perkins paid her a visit. Corporal Perkins said the woman told him she put the display as a direct message to her neighbors.  "It was a message to an ongoing dispute she was having with other homeowners on that same street," Perkins told WWL First News. Perkins says he informed Henderson that the display was in violation of obscenity laws and that it must come down, or else.

And a Merry Christmas to all!

Just looks like a three-headed angel. Maybe it's the heavenly equivalent of Cerberus or perhaps her rendition of a symbol of the otherwise invisible monster known as the HOA corporation burdening her neighborhood.

Notice how the news article failed to detail exactly who the parties were to the dispute? Notice how the news article failed to detail what the underlying dispute was? This was a hatchet piece on the homeowner. Hope the ACLU prevails again and maybe the "neighbors" via the HOA corporation will bug off.
