Some folks just need to get over themselves.

A halloween decoration is stirring up controversy in Chicopee.
Kelly lynch is a self-proclaimed witch and has been studying witchcraft since she was a child.

She's offended by this decoration of a witch hanging from a noose.

Lynch was so put off that she went straight to the owner's front door and asked him to take it down.

"He told me that people should lighten up, and that it's a halloween decoration," said Kelly Lynch "to have that as your only halloween decoration, it's kind of odd."

The owner refused to take it down.

Lynch says it's no laughing matter and is calling it a hate crime against her religion and to the entire community.

Lynch is threatening to protest if he neighbor doesnÂ’t take it down. ThatÂ’s her right.

Just as it is his right to have whatever Halloween decorations he wants.

And to add a second witch effigy – tied to a stake atop a pile of kindling. And to douse it with lighter fluid and set it alight during Lynch’s attempt to intimidate him into silence.

Private property and personal choice – they are beautiful things about this country. Don’t let a witch like Kelly Lynch take them away.

UPDATE: But in this case elsewhere in the country, the grievance-mongers win after bringing government pressure based upon spurious claims of racism.
