Ensure you know the bylaws and community rules and abide by them, or move.Response by SFC William Swartz Jr made Apr 6 at 2014 1:12 PM2014-04-06T13:12:41-04:002014-04-06T13:12:41-04:00SFC Benjamin Harrison94982<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I believe HOA's are by virtue un-American, thus is why i do not live in an area governed by such Socialistic ideals. At the same time, if i am a home owner, I would give no allegiance to the HOA and rebel for the sole purpose of rebelling. &nbsp;If you do not pay my mortgage, insurance, or taxes, what right do you have to govern my property? &nbsp;As a renter you have no protections and thus are required to pay homage to the HOA and their governing body, again not sure why as your rent is going to the home owner, but then perhaps the home owner supports the evil HOA.&nbsp;Response by SFC Benjamin Harrison made Apr 6 at 2014 2:31 PM2014-04-06T14:31:20-04:002014-04-06T14:31:20-04:00PO1 William "Chip" Nagel95116<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm Thinking HOA, Housing Association, Mine is probably one of the snootiest parts of the KC Metro but never any problem flying Old Glory or my Navy Flag as long as it is presented well. I'm sure not everyone is the same but we are big on Flags. I live in the same Housing Association with the German Consular General and British Consular General for Kansas City and I dare them to bust on their National Flags side by side with Old Glory in their Front Yards.Response by PO1 William "Chip" Nagel made Apr 6 at 2014 5:43 PM2014-04-06T17:43:54-04:002014-04-06T17:43:54-04:00SSgt Private RallyPoint Member95128<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>HOAs can get out of hand but as a funny aside,&nbsp; on the X-Files a monster took care of the noncompliant.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; lol.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And as far as these rules,&nbsp; they can change and who can afford to move every time there is a major change.Response by SSgt Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 6 at 2014 5:59 PM2014-04-06T17:59:31-04:002014-04-06T17:59:31-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member95195<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My opinion? Ridiculous. Wrong. <div><br></div><div>This is one of those relatively rare situations that I would actually argue for taking them to to the press. Give the HOA as much bad publicity as you can and see if you can shame them into changing. </div>Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 6 at 2014 7:33 PM2014-04-06T19:33:39-04:002014-04-06T19:33:39-04:00MSG Private RallyPoint Member96144<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I think it's wrong of any individual to tell someone they can't support their country or the Service members who defend the very freedoms they want. I will NEVER live in a neighborhood that has an HOA!! It's just goes against every fiber of my being to live somewhere like that!!Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 7 at 2014 8:53 PM2014-04-07T20:53:56-04:002014-04-07T20:53:56-04:002014-04-06T12:33:08-04:00
