Richmond, VA, homeowners assoc. threatens 90 yr old Medal of Honor winner, Purple Heart recipient for unapproved flag pole
Submitted by bizgrrl on Fri, 2009/12/04 - 7:19am

The Sussex Square homeowners' association says the flagpole violates the neighborhood's aesthetic guidelines and ordered him to remove it by 5 p.m. Friday or face a lawsuit. The group has said Barfoot can display the flag, as long as it's in a way that conforms with association rules, such as from a pole mounted on the front of the house.

Do you think they could make a single exception for this guy?!?!? They could write it in to the neighborhood bylaws, Medal of Honor winners with Purple Hearts that stand "up to three German tanks with a bazooka and stopping their advance" can have a 21-foot flag pole in front of their home.
