Thank you for getting back to the topic of the thread !
Heard you on wibc several times today and just saw the link, thanks
If you have to keep it in the space you rent then lets work on a traditional type pole with some heavy base to keep the wind from blowing it over, like 200lbs at the base should do it. And this would lead to no damage to anything ?
I may even be able to dig up a 8 to 10 foot 1 1/2 od pipe with a 1/8 wall ??? The base will be easy
Just a thunk
I plan on driving PVC pipe into the ground. Find some with close to the same ID as the poles OD. I figure that should hold it up pretty well. If they would have just told me it could not be attached to the fence around my patio, I would have not had an issue with it.
funny how they didn't mention that until Fox59 investigated.
Good job getting on their arse and not taking it.
I want to personally thank all of you for your support. I wish I could shake all of your hands. As I told Fox 59. I don't want money, and I don't want fame. Many Men and Women gave their lives to protect and defend our flag. I dedicate this to all of them. They are what makes this country great. I'm thankful that I had the opportunity to serve our Nation. Something I will always cherish. To those that did not serve, you are still patriots, and I have much respect for you as well. Thank you all very much.
Just to share a little story about tonight. Vert, his wife, and I went to Big Woods Pizza after our day of pistol training. They where having a block party of sorts in the alley by Big Woods. You bought tickets, which where used in exchange for beer and food. Vert went to get mine. The lady at the beer stand asked me if I was a Veteran, then asked Vert if I was. She says, take your tickets back, it's on us. I can not express what such a simple gesture meant to me. Then I come home and see my Facebook page just exploding with support. Also that Fox news covered my story. Words can not express how I feel. I never thought it would get this big.
Despite those that tell me I'm stupid, and ask why I did it. For every one of them, I have 30 standing by me. That means so much to me. It gives me hope that we still have a chance to get back to being the Nation we once where. Where people had back bone and where willing to back up what they say and did. Where you did not have to worry about being politically correct. Again, thank you all!

I am not sure where you got the profile picture for the facebook page, but I posted a picture of flag I took that has blue skies behind it if you want to use it for one if you need one where you got permission to use it.
It's of the flag flying over the Arizona Memorial.
God Bless You, & Thank You for your continuing service to our Freedom! An exceptional example of an American!

There is nothing hypocritical about my position.
I support less laws and for citizens to use courts for redress when other citizens have violated them. In the instance of the OP's landlord, I have asked for no law banning his ability to fly a flag. It's strictly between him and the landlord. I have not said that anyone does not have the right to sue. I have said that I would take actions to limit liabilities in law suits. I would like to think most of us do that every day when we drive our cars or various other actions. Nowhere have I said that people don't have the right to sue me. Sure, I could go out side and just shoot my gun into the air. By not doing so, I don't give others the ability to sue me if one of my bullets should do damage to them or their property.
There are multiple building codes and regulations landlords must comply with in order to rent out properties. A smart landlord doesn't need them to be law to see that compliance will prevent him from being sued into the poor house.
I picked up a new flag today. I'll post pics up later. Here is the law pertaining to flying a flag.

I added this to my FB page even thought there has been a (temporary?) reconciliation of sorts. I am so sorry for the pain this has caused you when you have already given so much to this country. I just moved out of an apartment and found their enforcement of lease rules to be arbitrary. I am so glad to be back in a house where we can make our own rules!!
And to those of you who chose this site to debate your own agendae regarding rentals and tenantship- Shame on you! That is not the issue at hand here and should be discussed elsewhere please.
