Lisa Addeo, a Stuart resident, posted political signs in her front yard, with controversial statements like "Vote for the American," "It's the economy, stupid! " and "Obama plus Hitler."
"This is my property, and I feel this is my right," Addeo explained. "I've gotten good responses. I've actually gotten roses yesterday for standing up for America."
But neighbors, like Linnea Desmond, believe the signs cross a line.
"When I drove by this, I was personally affronted, said Desmond. "We see signs all the time, yard signs for Democrats, Republicans. But I don't see other people putting out Hitler signs!"
Desmond said she doesnt want children riding by in school busses to see signs like that.
"I've told my neighbors, Jewish people, Christian people, please, don't drive down this street, she said. It's an insult to humanity!"

No more hiding the ugly. They're letting it out. Good! We'll know exactly who and what they are from now on.
