Nor do they likely prohibit erecting a 12 foot high billboard advertising Hooters in the front yards, or having buffaloes grazing in the cul-de-sacs.
It is a logical fallacy to attribute a limit on prohibitions based only on a very specific list of issues, when the bylaws give the right to the Board to make individual decisions. That would be like the government not being able to ban dangerous speech in airports unless they list all the variations.
And offering up Wikipedia as a “higher authority” is another logical fallacy. If you check the quote, it did not originate with Wikipedia, nor would it matter.
Some others here attack the Board with ad hominem personal characterizations, some using the term socialists.....which is defined as “a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.”
That is not accurate at all, but merely a pejorative label used by the arrogant to make them seem “more right”.
Since you have not published the actually bylaws, then there is nothing but assumption involved here.
What seems to be apparent is that this man has a right to display the flag, but not to hoist it up every day. So it is an issue of style, not substance.
Thank you for your reasoned an intelligent post. I made a less detailed but similar post and had my “advice” labeled a POS. When I defended myself I was challenged by the moderator to stop my personal attacks. Though I do feel I crossed a line, as I only used terms that were thrown at me first, I do find it funny and interesting that those who attacked me simply because I did not find their misguided points of view credible THEY reported me to the moderator.
Go figure.
I am, however, glad to see via your post that there are still thinking, reasonable people who post on FR.
Have a great day.
