262. Your right to be offended doesn't trump his right to use his property
in a legal manner.

He could put up a giant menorah, or rainbow flag on his front lawn too, that would likely offend some people. That doesn't mean he should be penalized or stigmatized for it.

Now if he is part of a homeowners association he must abide by those rules he agreed to when moving in, but I don't think that's the case in this scenario.
