Mike O’Hare suggests that you read this piece, especially its last paragraph, and comments:
Can you imagine the crap that poor Bethlehem innkeeper took from his homeowners association board?
It’s always like that: you let vagrants in and right away you get foreign weirdos with incense and off-the-books cash, the shepherds go off duty and hang out in the yard, the hay gets all beat up and slept on and the cow won’t eat it, squalling baby keeps the animals awake. You just have to draw the line somewhere.
