Mr Wolf served his country and never did nobody any wrong (he got assigned to supply in Maryland)

It’s become the new concrete goose. I see these still up and wonder if folks bothered to consider where they were going to store them before buying

Im all for it leaving them up. Seeing a 15ft tall skeleton wearing a pride flag as a cape is a hoot and a half.

Concrete goose?

It was a trend for a short while in the suburbs. Keep a concrete goose in your front yard and dress it up accordingly to the holiday or season. Early 2000’s I think?

Wouldn’t dressing up the warewolf reinforce the argument that it’s a seasonal decoration?

Nope, a tree doesn’t become seasonal just because you put lights on it in December. Dressing it up shows that the statue is a general uses decoration that can be customized for any season.

Good thing is always some kind of season

Yeah, but the reason it was classified as seasonal was almost certainly to limit it to Halloween.

This makes it seasonal to whatever season it’s dressed up as, which can be anything.

I’m hoping that tomorrow the owner will dress it in beachwear.

Also delays any legal action until the owner can figure out the next seasonal outfit.

August is a little tricky (floral shirt?), but there are plenty of good options after that.

Because nebolous housing rates are more important than everything else burning to the ground around them.

She’s fighting with the city over this? What city had rules for how you can decorate your property? I can see a draconian HOA having an issue with this, but I was under the impression the city never cares unless there’s a code violation.

iirc one american city tried to jail a dude because he “wouldn’t” (couldn’t as he was old af and broke) mow his lawn.

I dont think he went to jail but it was taken to court

My hometown has city ordinance over fences. They have a max height and need to not block the view of the houses too much. It’s in place to keep the welcoming feel of the town iirc. So yeah depending on the place the city could be getting involved directly

I’d fight that. Surely there’s a fourth amendment argument there (e.g. I need it to be high enough that police looking over it would constitute an illegal search).

My city limits fence heights, but the limit is 1.8m. a cop would need to be pretty tall to see over

Anyway, if you want more height you could grow a hedge. Also if you don’t like the setback rules, a hedge can regain all the lost front yard

We have a fair few hedges.

Depending on the city they can be every bit as petty. Especially small towns that want to appear higher class than they are.

And the trashier a town is the more likely it is to have weird ordinances from back when they were trying to keep the trash out that they selectively enforce now.
