This year I am so tempted to fly the Yellow, Green and Black Rattlesnake Flag instead of the Red White and Blue, or at the very least fly both and put the Rattle Snake below Old Glory. But I am still trying to decide on it....
In some ways I feel like raising the Red White and Blue is akin to pretending that nothing is wrong in this country and there are a lot of things that are going wrong right now. In some ways it makes me feel like I am surrending to the normalcy bias.
I could always fly the UN Flag I got in order to find out who in my neighbor hood I can trust should SHTF, since the anyone who comes over on the 4th and yells at me I can trust and those who complement me on it I can put on my do not ever trust again list.
(side point: I bought the UN Flag for the very useful purpose of either defacing it or using it for strategic purposes should SHTF and the UN is involved).
I really do want to raise Old Glory again this year, but I get more sad and upset every single year that passes...
I have seen some of the articles, in fact one of these incidents occurred in Texas not far from where I live. But that occurred in an apartment complex with corporate ownership where residents have no say about the rules. Our local VFW and Republican groups did mount a call and protest campaign against them though for not allowing both the American and Texas flags to be flown.
Our HOA board is elected by the residents of our housing sub-division. About five years ago the residents voted out all the members of the old board and we wouldn’t hesitate to do it again. It wasn’t about flags or Christmas decorations though, it was about the cost of dues and how the money was being spent.
Good. Thanks for letting me know.
Jarhead, this retired Squid will fly the Stars and Stripes with the Navy flag.

I’m flying the Gonzales flag... The modern one with the AR-15 on it.
You betcha.
I did until some scum sucking liberal dog vomit stole it last week right off the front of my house...
Waiting for the replacement...
