ReplyDeletePeople forget, but there is an element on the right (super busybody usually super-fundamental Christian) that's just as toxic and evil as the busybody "woke" left.

Your property, not breaking the law, neighbor has their own opinion of the dragons, that is their right, just as it is her right to keep them. In other words, if you don't like them, don't look at them and keep your opinions to yourself!
ReplyDeleteWith all the inflatable characters people put up,there is nothing wrong with dragons. People just have to have something to complain about.
