Burning Cross

Would you rather have a cross burned on your lawn, or burn a cross on someone else's lawn?

Considerations:

• Assume that you have a lawn that is exclusively yours (such that you know that the burning cross is intended for you).
• The cross is life sized--(large enough for a crucifixion).
  
• Having a cross burned on your lawn is a very hateful thing. Why would you want to be hated?
• Burning a cross on someone else's lawn is very hateful. Why would you want to be a hater?
