Neal Boortz is right… every year they should take an HOA at random and execute them live in Pay Per View TV. I’ve lived in a “managed” community for five years now…never again…

BobG – Or at least protest the damned place.

Andrew – I know. The disrespect is becoming epidemic.

Ralph – And they’re stuck on that setting, I’m afraid.

Smite – I don’t see you as a conformist. Just sayin’.

Fenway_Nation – A local firm is allegedly taking the case, no charge.

Jason – “I’d stand up, but this Medal of Honor is weighing me down.”

Ingineer66 – Agreed.

Marvin – I hope so. They need a sound thrashing.

Naked Patriot – That would be a truly deserving punishment to these jerkasses.

Dave – I guarantee there is not one veteran on this board.

BookenDano – If I find a link, I’ll post it here.

Old NFO – Unbelievable, isn’t it?

Rob – Blindfolds are also outlawed in the condos. Heh.

DL474 – Reading the story just makes me so angry. What happened to common sense in this country?

Stephen – And they don’t appreciate his actions, or their own freedom. Disgusting.

Glenn – Not a darned thing. And it sounds like you Dad was one of the true good guys.

MUD – Since when does the ACLU stand up for heroes? Never.

Piper – He sounds like someone who should have his own theme song.

I would like to play bagpipes for this man; I know about 600+ tunes; I would start with the first one I learned.

I’ll bet the ACLU didn’t jump up and take this one. You don’t earn the Medal of Honor, it is awarded to people that perform above and beyond what would be expected. That bunch of ACLU guys should be taken down by the ACLU for not supporting this type of situation. He needs to move away from there and find people that understand that there are some of us that care. MUD

Had my Dad still been around, this would have been fun. Dad was in Korea, Vietnam and a place called Quemoy. The tour in Vietnam was before the US was “in” Vietnam.
He would have offered to hog tie and brand the board and the law firm representing this board. And I mean every last one of them, including the girl at the front desk answering the phones. Cowboy from the Montana High Plains, OK? Wyatt understands, I think.
Dad walked from the 38th to the Yalu and back. On Quemoy, they got shelled all day long by the Chicoms. And at night the Chicoms would try and sneak over the 1.5 miles of water. One night Dad and three of his buddies took a 60mm mortar, a Browning M-2, rifles and grenades up on the rocks. This was in direct violation of the rules, as they were advisers. Result: The only Chicoms that made the rocks did so face down. This was 1958, I was four. It took twenty years to get the decorations, Bronze Stars. One of his comrades was already dead. To the board of this MOH recipient’s HOA and it’s law firm, go fuck your selves. If it was me close by, I would pound the shit out of all of them. Jail be damned.
And as Wyatt, some of you know me as another cancer survivor. What are they gonna do?

This is ridiculous,the man won the Medal Of Honor so these idiots could have the Freedom to have a Homeowners Association. They need to show him some respect.

If I was this guy, I’d almost be tempted to paint my house like a giant flag.
Poor old guy, he’s done his duty, let him have some peace.

The deadline has been extended one week (first sign of capitulation). Besides his heroic deeds he is one of a very few people who raise the flag in the AM and respectfully lower it in the afternoon. Here is a link to more details on the story. I lived in Va. for a number of years.http://www2.timesdispatch.com/rtd/news/local/article/FLAG031_20091202-234201/309270/

Just make a note, after the revolution, no blindfold for these jerks… joking of course, they can have a blindfold.
