The infuriating part is that if there was a HOA in this neighborhood, this sign would NOT be allowed (or more specifically, the HOA would be allowed to force this sign to be removed.)
This is where I don't understand HOA's. If the Constitution limits the power of the federal, state, and local governments, it should also limit the power of a HOA. But for some reason it doesn't.

Pope: Other Christian Denominations Not True Churches
FOXNews.com - Pope: Other Christian Denominations Not True Churches - International News | News of the World | Middle East News | Europe News
I don't know why this is such a surprise, Catholics have always said they were the one true or "universal" Church, it would be hard for them to change that now.
This is in fact, the ONLY real problem I have with the Catholic Church. I have lots of disagreements with them things I can wait to find out the truth about once I'm in Heaven (And I'm willing to bet we're all wrong!!).
I also have great respect for Catholics that live by there beliefs. I would never suggest that a Catholic do anything that violated their own conscience. I may live differently, but I'm not sure enough in my belief to impose it on them. This is where we have a problem because Catholics ARE sure enough in their beliefs to try and impose them on me. Considering the history of the Catholic Church, I just don't see how that can be supported.

Music licensing companies come calling for royalties
Next they'll come try and make me pay for singing a copyrighted song in the shower.
This is ridiculous, how do they know which songs were sung so the right person gets the money? They don't, they are just collecting money from any place that dares offer entertainment. If they can send people to small places like this for a couple hundred dollars a year, I bet there overhead is so high the "artist" don't get anything.
It's reports like this that give the whole music industry a bad name. The artist don't benefit from this crap, they probably started out working in places like this (and worst) and if they all go out of business or quit offering live entertainment, where will the new artist come from?
They're killing music by killing the training ground!!
