HOME OWNERS ASSOCIATION FORCES RESIDENTS TO TAKE DOWN LAW ENFORCEMENT FLAGS

Residents in a neighborhood in Fort Worth, Texas are infuriated after their Home Owners Association began cracking down on flags flown to honor law enforcement.

The HOA in Seventeen Lakes only allows three types of flags to be flown including the Texas state flag, military flags and the American flag, according to WFAA-TV.

This spring, more residents began flying the blue and black American flags in honor of injured Fort Worth Police Officer Matthew Pearce -- and the HOA noticed.

"I got a letter of non-compliance," resident Marvin Faulkenburry told the news station. "I was given 30 days to get it down or face $100 a day fine until I did take it down."

Others in the neighborhood reported that they received citations as well.

"The fact the HOA takes exception to (the law enforcement flag) is insulting, in my opinion," Faulkenburry said.

Some in the neighborhood are split on what to do and one resident told the news station that he'll take his chances and leave it up.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Those flags will not affect property values. Fuck that HOA!
