"'Daddy did somebody put poop on our door because of our sign?'" Taula-Lieras said. "And we are a little more on edge to think, 'in our community, are we ultimately as safe as we thought we were?'"
Despite the obscene act, Taula-Lieras is willing to forgive whoever flung the dog doo at his front door.
"I felt like people had lapses of judgment, and that this was a lapse of judgment, on this person's part," Taula-Lieras said.
A revolting show of intolerance, revealing a response of restraint.
"Although the harm is done and the fear is instilled, I think it's still important to forgive people," Taula-Lieras said.
Taula-Lieras has not filed a police report. If someone does it again he says he will file one, and his family will feel even more threatened.
