Nah, it wouldn't. I suggest you visit a place, such as Chicago, that has the "L" running thru the neighborhood. Just try it for a weekend & let us know how utterly peaceful you find it.
it would. i lived it for several years. 6 blocks away from the most second most extensive railroad switching yards in the world.
I see many veterans from the War on Christmas posting on this thread. I guess all the whining about religion being forced out of the public square only applied to Christianity and Nativity scenes. I love it when conservatives forget the plot and own themselves with blatant hypocrisy.

Can you avoid them if you want?
How do the residents and businesses in that area avoid this?

Can I stand on a public street corner and bellow off-key religious music?

Can I ring a bell in a religious building that can be heard 6 blocks away?
If I can stand on a street corner and bellow, can I make it so loud that no one can tune it out?
