In our neighborhood back in 2020, we had a newly retired Navy guy and his family move into the neighborhood, they were a black family which is no big deal but in this case, it became a big deal.

The neighbor across from this new resident was a huge Trump Supporter, they kept their Trump/Pence yard sign up until late into 2021.

The New black family across the street must not have been a Trump fan because they put up a Black nationalist flag, all the markings of the American Flag, except the colors were Red, Black, and Green.

Then on Juneteenth, the black family erected this huge yard sign celebrating Juneteenth and the end of slavery.

Shortly after Juneteenth, the white Trump family started flying a “Bonnie Blue” Confederate Flag, most people wouldn’t recognize it, a solid blue flag with one big white star in the middle, I knew immediately what it was and told my wife, now that’s how to escalate things.

Finally the Board got involved and told both sides to take their flags down and stop acting like children in a game of tit for tat, so far the truce is holding.

That’s some story SR.

Of course, in this case the HOA seems to be helping to resolve it. This could have happened anywhere, in a non-HOA neighborhood.

I also had a few talks with HOA neighbors that it was time to grow up and be adults. They were acting worse than children.
