A Louisiana man in the Bucktown area of New Orleans is in hot water with his neighbors due to his extremely bloody Halloween decorations.

Neighbors are well aware that Vic Miorana, who says he was raised as a Catholic, loves creating elaborate displays for the holiday, but this year’s theme and props have sparked some anger, ABC 6 reported Thursday.

The decorations appear to show a beheaded Jesus, whose head is in the hands of Satan, looming over the yard while nuns and a priest stand nearby.

Miorana shared video footage of the scene, which also features red lighting, flashes of fire, smoke, and ghostly figures scattered on the lawn.

Although neighbors say they feel the display is disrespectful, Miorana has refused to take it down, stating, “This is just decorations for fun. It’s not real Jesus; these are foam props that I made. I’m very sorry if this hurt anyone or if this caused anyone to feel sad.”

One neighbor called it “appalling,” while another resident said, “In a word, it’s blasphemy,” according to WWLTV.

“I understand everybody has, I love freedom of speech. That’s what we’re all here for; that’s what makes this country great. But we have freedom of speech as well,” the resident told the outlet.

“I feel like we needed to express our opinion as well,” she added.

One social media user shared an image of the Satan figure holding the head of Jesus and wrote that he is “not a prude,” but “Mr. Miorana is simply a dumbass. There’s no better way to put it.”

“There are many people of faith who are seriously shocked and taken aback and find this blasphemous. For me, it’s disgusting, stupid, and simply unnecessary,” he continued.

Another resident said the display is protected under free speech but questioned, “Does that make it right? You know, that’s my real question. Would you do this with another religion? Because I don’t think you would.”

According to Miorana, the display caused people to threaten his girlfriend about losing her job, so the pair eventually broke up.

Despite the controversy, Miorana refuses to take down the decorations, per the ABC report.

An uprising would definitely happen the moment that gets reported.

Most definitely.

Hope he gets saved...

A voice says, “Cry out.”
And I said, “What shall I cry?”

“All people are like grass,
And all their faithfulness is like the flowers of the field.
The grass withers and the flowers fall,
Because the breath of the Lord blows on them.
Surely the people are grass.
The grass withers and the flowers fall,
But the word of our God endures forever.”
...
Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand,
Or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens?
Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket,
Or weighed the mountains on the scales
And the hills in a balance?
Who can fathom the Spirit of the Lord,
Or instruct the Lord as his counselor?
Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten him,
And who taught him the right way?
Who was it that taught him knowledge,
Or showed him the path of understanding?

Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket;
They are regarded as dust on the scales;
He weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.
Lebanon is not sufficient for altar fires,
Nor its animals enough for burnt offerings.
Before him all the nations are as nothing;
They are regarded by him as worthless
And less than nothing.
(Isaiah 40, excerpts)

I guess that "suffering for your sins" balloon payment finally came due. Humanity's been racking up sins faster than they could be "Christ-suffered" away.

freedom of speech?

Yes. Also, freedom to suffer public backlash, meaning, it's not the job of the public treasury to foot the security bill for someone who wants to make inflammatory public displays.
