Nope, they are leaning into the outrage. The flag has been painted over. I know that house, really nice spot! We have friends that live on Common, just on the other side of the high school.

Desiderata

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
