A community in Florida is rallying around a disabled veteran after the homeowners association told him he had to take down an American flag on a flag pole in his yard.
What are the people in the homeowners association even thinking? Who tells a disabled veteran to take down the flag that he fought for and became disabled defending? Shame on these people.
They even filed a lawsuit over this.

Disabled veteran fights homeowners association lawsuit over flagpole in Florida yard
A disabled veteran in Volusia County, Florida, is at the center of a heated dispute with his homeowners association (HOA) over a flagpole installed in his yard.
According to Fox News affiliate WOFL-TV, the Countryside Villas PUD3 HOA has filed a lawsuit against the unnamed veteran, claiming he failed to obtain the required approval before erecting the permanent structure.
Despite the legal friction, community support for the veteran has surged, with neighbors speaking out against what they see as harassment and unnecessary litigation.
“Leave the veteran alone. He hasn’t done anything wrong,” Frank Johnson, a veteran himself, told the outlet. “He’s called me crying that they’re harassing him and bullying him. He’s served this country. He’s paid his dues. They wanted to get him on a flagpole and some weeds in the lawn. It’s pathetic. It’s really pathetic.”…
The situation only escalated when the veteran refused to remove the flagpole, accruing $1,000 in fines. The HOA responded by initiating a lawsuit for $8,000 and threatening to place a lien on his property.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is a veteran. Someone needs to call his office and ask him to intervene in this situation. He has a very good record of standing up to woke BS like this and would be a valuable ally in this fight. Make the members of the homeowners association famous.
