    All kinds of people out there.
    This house is close to a school and in a residential neighborhood. Class act.
    There are pictures of this house in the article. How would you like your young child, or grand child to see this everyday on the way to school ?

    N.J. woman must remove anti-Biden F-bomb signs or face $250-a-day fines, judge rules
    A municipal judge on Thursday ruled that a Roselle Park homeowner’s owner’s anti- President Biden flags including the F-bomb on her fence were obscene and must be removed because they violated a borough ordinance.
    Roselle Park Municipal Court Judge Gary Bundy ordered the Willow Avenue homeowner to remove the signs with profanity within a week or face a $250-a-day fine. Patricia Dilascio is the property owner but her daughter, Andrea Dick, had the signs, three of which include the F-word, on display.

      That's the LGBTQIA Gay American Pride Rainbow Flag

      And those just touch the surface...

      What do the Pride flags mean?

      The original rainbow flag used eight colors to represent different spiritual and emotional aspects of the psyche. Hot pink, before it was removed, stood for sex; red means life; orange means healing; yellow means sunlight; green means nature; turquoise means magic and art; indigo (later changed to royal blue) means serenity; and violet means spirit. But of course, there are many more Pride flags than just the rainbow version created in the 1970s. Today, you’re likely to see a version designed by Daniel Quasar that adds a triangular chevron to one side, with colors honoring the trans community as well as people of color. That one is commonly known as the “Progress Pride Flag.” You may also see a version pioneered in Philadelphia that puts black and brown stripes at the top.The Bisexual Pride flag has also seen common use for many years. It has a pink block at the top, a thinner purple stripe, and then a blue block at the bottom. As designed, the pink represents same-sex attraction, the blue represents other-sex attraction, and the thin purple stripe stands for the breadth of the gender spectrum.The Pansexual Pride flag is comprised of pink (representing attraction to femmes), yellow (attraction to nonbinary people), and blue (attraction to masc people) stripes.

      A less widely adopted Polyamory Pride flag has a blue (represention openness), red (passion), and black (solidarity) stripe with a gold (emotional attachment) Pi symbol in the middle. A variation on the Poly flag turns the black stripe into a triangle and replaces the Pi symbol with a yellow stripe.The Asexual Pride flag, created in 2010, has four stripes: Black to represent asexuality, grey for demisexuality, white for allies, and purple for community.Other variations of the Pride flag include Genderfluid, Genderflexible and Genderqueer Pride; flags for the Leather, Bear, and BDSM communities; a Polysexual Pride flag; Agender and Aromantic Pride flags; and even a rarely-seen Straight Ally Pride Flag with a large rainbow triangle amidst black and white stripes.

      Is there a Black Lives Matter Pride flag?

      Because there’s no one authority that controls Pride flags, tons of variations can exist. And in the last few years, that’s meant that many protests and parades have seen an increase in Pride flags combined with Black Lives Matter flags.One popular version places a fist in the center of the rainbow stripes, with black and brown stripes making up the fist. Another simply places the words “Black Lives Matter” atop the old-fashioned rainbow.Combining the two movements makes a lot of sense, since both causes align with each other. The modern LGBTQ+ liberation movement was touched off by queer and trans people of color and their struggle continues to this day, with both communities seeking justice, equality, and freedom from oppression. And because many people belong to both communities, they’re not two distinct causes but instead overlap
