Apartment Residents Told To Take Down U.S. Flags

yawn!

1st Amendment Freedom of Speech. Sorry Management you should get sued! And you will lose! What A holes

"Bring the crosses down! Bring the flags down!"

What's next with these folks and their extremely leftist views? Maybe I shouldn't even ask...

Can't show the American flag in America because it might offend others? As a poster at the end of the story said, this is the result of a "multicultural" America. We're being told, more and more frequently (even by the President and his wife) that we can't be proud of our country.

Naturally, the ACLU said they weren't interested. But if NAMBLA members wanted to fly the flag, I bet they'd jump right in.

Marxist-Lite runs amuck.

So let me get this straight. You're in favor of forcing all taxpayers to support a religous display on PUBLIC property (the cross in Mojave), but are against a PRIVATE property owner from exercising control over their own property?

Seems you've got it bassackwards.....

A private property owner has every right to restrict what is displayed on their own property. Especially since in this case they weren't banning JUST the U.S. flag, but ALL flags. You people really need to actually read the constitution once in a while.

Just some more socialist reggin bullshit.

Somebody needs to post contact info ASAP.

The American flag isn't just ALL FLAGS to many of us.

I don't know the historic casualty count defending the Halloween flag , do you ?

A little slow in the area of reading comprehension, are ya? Where did I say anything about the rights of the property owner?

Public law 109-243 /HR 42
SEC. 3. RIGHT TO DISPLAY THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES.

A condominium association, cooperative association, or residential real estate management association may not adopt or enforce any policy, or enter into any agreement, that would restrict or prevent a member of the association from displaying the flag of the United States on residential property within the association with respect to which such member has a separate ownership interest or a right to exclusive possession or use.

Expressly public law since July 24,2006 and presumably consitutionally protected since December 15, 1791

You can take my flags from me cold dead hand! I have three flags! Try to take them from me, bitches!

Hi Sheeple...seems we run into each other regularly.

If these folks are paying RENT, they should have the right to fly an American flag. Now, if the landlord is paying them for staying there, I guess I could agree with him.

Try again. The gov't was going to swap that piece of property for a nearby 6 times larger piece of property and the cross land would become a private trust for a veterans org.

Veterans of WWI erected that cross as a tribute to those of their generation that died in France in 1917-8.

Seventy years later the lefty-lib-Marxist-Lite crowd wants to undo it.

The cross was maintained at NO CHARGE to the public tax payer. Any charge was absorbed 50-60 years ago.

But hey ! The lefty-lib-Marxist-Lite brigade doesn't give a flying phouc about a past generations sacrifice for America.

I suppose the next demand of the Lefty-lib-Marxist-Lite brigade will be to remove every cross , Star of David and Crescent from every military cemetery in the U.S. Of course the expense will be born by the U.S. taxpayer as mandated by the Lefty-Lib-Marxist-Lite Brigade.

Typical Camel's nose under the tent move.

That has nothing to do with it. This was on PRIVATE PROPERTY. The owner can set any type of rules they want so long as the rules are applied equally to all.

That's the point. You're bitching about this when the case revolves around a private property owners rights.

This is an apartment complex, clearly NOT covered in the statute cited since it is not an "association" nor do the residents have a "separate ownership interest". They are renting, not buying.
