A decorated war veteran laying a flag on the ground?

I agree that HOA are the devil. I rented a house with an HOA once and the whole neighborhood creeped me out.

Our HOA allows flag poles. Sounds like this guy picked a shitty place to move in to. It pays to ask questions about the community rules before you buy. I'm not saying the HOA is right, those people are fucking whacked, but he should have done more homework on the HOA and their bogus rules.

Because it's written into the neighborhood coventants/bylaws that you sign before you purchase the place.

That way if you don't agree...you don't move in.
