The man signed on the dotted line agreeing to obey the HOA. And now he is complaining about them telling him what to do? That is what he signed up for. If he didn't want an HOA telling him what he can or cannot do, why the heck didn't he buy a house in a non-HOA location? Doesn't make sense to me.

The HOA agreement says that military flags are OK. Whatever. I know for a fact that my HOA doesn't have any teeth... they can't actually do anything to me... I'd just ignore them. But, if he raises a stink, I'm sure a big slob wrapped in a flag like Pearce would be glad to pass legislation to help him.
