Medal of Honor winner, 90, ordered to remove flagpole

I side with the man on this one. Insane that he cannot have a flagpole to show pride for his country. I wish a few more people would show support for this country like that man, but an incident like this just puts those ideas down.

He can have a pole on his porch. Like everyone else. That's the whole point of living in a planned community. You wanna flagpole, buy a house. Or maybe he could petition for a flagpole that is in a common area. I'm sure they'd let im be the flagpole guy.

Its just a flag pole and american flag....what harm can be done? I'm seriously people get pissed cause a veteran wants to show his patriotism, yet in San Fransico middle eastern immigrants are protesting anti-jewish/american and we just sit back and say "oh their exercising their freedom of speech".
