Reply #212: I get the offened part. I can grasp that someone could be shocked and dismayed by it. [View All]

What I don't get is how offense translates to harm. How does seeing dead deer harm anyone beyond what seeing a runover skunk would do?

As for self-centered assholes, well that seems to be even more subjective! Yes in the front yard is a bit "in your face" on the other hand its only for a short, short time (I would have thought a few hours at most, but even a few days) and apparently in a state/local where hunting is a common activity. Some cultures are able to recognize boundaries and maybe wouldn't be staring into the neighbors' property/space...just saying. Seems to me one can make an easy argument either side of this example could be called self-centered.

I think OP should feel her shock, resolve not to look and realize that others are within their rights to do things she finds offensive. Don't we wish many more examples of harmless-but-not-my-lifestyle shocking sights could just be ignored so the diversity that makes us interesting can flourish!
