    It is important news that people actually care about what they are trying to do to this man. This is not about anything else.

    I'm glad people care about someone else but I just don't like that people take so much concern over the size of a flagpole someone can have in some neighborhood when I feel there are so many more important causes they could take up. They aren't even saying he can't fly a flag, just not a 20ft tall pole!!!

    Its about what he has done for this country. Its just a fucking flagpole for gods sake. This is one of those fine lines where it comes a time to put up the rule book and use your heart.

    If it were my neighborhood I would be one of the people complaining like crazy too, but its not my neighborhood and I respect a neighborhoods right to decide their own standards.

    So after all the guy has done....you would treat him like nothing over a flagpole? Come on man! If it were shit cars, trash or dogs....I could see it....Its an old man who stuck his neck out there on more than one occasion for his country and you cant look over some stupid ass rules and use better judgement?

    Did you not read my last post. I stated that I think he should be able to fly his flag on his giant 20ft pole. However, I don't think its my decision or the rest of the country's decision to make.

    Everyone who is supporting him has a good heart but this is way overblown. If someone insulted him for his service and I was next to them I would punch them in the face but I don't think a national outcry over it would be necessary.

    If thats what it takes to change the minds of the heartless people in that HOA....then yes it is necessary. I would want the same done for me as Im sure you would want the same if you were him.
