“Col. Van T. Barfoot, a local Medal of Honor winner, is under the gun from his Henrico County community's homeowner association.
In a five-paragraph letter to Barfoot that he received yesterday, Barfoot is being ordered to remove a flagpole from his yard. The decorated veteran of three wars, now 90 years old, raises the American flag every morning on the pole, then lowers and folds the flag at dusk each day in a three-corner military fashion.”
The homeowners association has the right to make and enforce whatever rules they (democratically) deem appropriate. They also have the right to (democratically) eliminate a stupid rule. I hope they do.
Col. Barfoot has my eternal gratitude. Only a sub-human moron would deny him the right to show his respect for our flag in this manner.
