If those bastards can BURN a flag on public property, then ANYONE ought to be able to fly a flag on their OWN private property!

Better yet, if burning the flag is supposedly Constitutionally protected free speech, then why is flying the flag not considered the same?

As ridiculous as the controversy is, this person should have never chosen to live under the authority of the homeowners association.

Why someone would choose to subjugate themselves to even more authority with one of these groups I'll never know.

This is why I despise homeowner associations. They may start out with a good premise, but the busy bodies figure out how they can get a little bit of power over their neighbors, or really screw with those they don't like. I've seen more bad than good come out of homeowner associations.

Everybody repeat after me, flying an American flag will not lower your property values.

GEORGE ANDRES AND HIS ATTORNEY WERE JUST ON HANNITY & COLMES. The re-run of the show will be on after Greta and O' Reilly. Thought you might want to know.

I just saw Mr. Andres and his lawyer on Hannity & Colmes. This homeowners' association did not even have anything in their deed restrictions about flagpoles or anything. According to the homeowner and his attorney, after his flagpole was up, the association decided they wanted only flags flying from brackets attached to homes. So the association has been very devious and dishonest from the start. The homeowner needs $25,000 to save his house, and Hannity said that if it got close to foreclosure, he would personally put up $5,000 and raise the rest so the association would not get the man's house. These bastards at the association cannot be allowed to kick this man out of his home, especially when they are making regulations up as they go along!

I guess the ACLU is not interested in this one but what if it was the rainbow homo flag the guy wanted to fly?
