The World Thru My Eyes - I speak my mind and man does it like to talk.

I often notice how This Congress and Senate spend so much time passing silly legislation, usually embedded within another bill, such as money to study something no one really cares about or money to preserve something that can be done with money from the people that live there and things like that.

What I wonder is if we have time to pass such stupid legislation why can’t we pass some legislation on something worth passing legislation for? Here’s an example:

WWII Vet Ordered to Remove American Flag From Outside New Hampshire Home

This man, and every other member of this apartment complex were ordered to remove any flags they had on their apartments. I’m sure you are wondering what’s the big deal, it’s their apartment and if they don’t want flags they can demand to have them removed right? Sure, but why after 9 years? Why would management of this apartment complex all of a sudden ask a veteran to remove a flag he had been flying for 9 years?

This is just one of many situations where the American flag has been treated like a Halloween decoration, like a bed sheet being used as a window curtain, like anything but the flag of the greatest Nation in the world.

That’s why I propose that legislation should be made that would allow people to hang the American flag on any property they live on. Of course the legislation should be written properly so that it does not infringe on other peoples lives or that the flag by put in a place that can be dangerous or compromising to the properly. Because I just came up with the idea, I don’t have a specific proposal with details and all that stuff but maybe someone with more experience can write something up. My goal is simply to give the American people the right to fly the American flag where ever they live so long as it does not pose some kind of danger.

What do you think? This Gov’t thinks Healthcare is a right, why not this? If you have any reason why this is a bad idea, please share in the comment section. And don’t forget to Digg & Reditt this article, see buttons below.

Your house is one thing, even your condo.  But while I think the apartment management is extremely mis-guided, it is THEIR property.  So, no, no law to confiscate the right of the property owner to use his property as he sees fit.

Good point. Still, I think people should be allowed so long as it doesn't mess up the property. But that's just me.

I totally agree.  But the thing with laws, is they are often abused, and almost impossible to get rid of.  As I said, the Apartment management is being petty and stupid, but that is their right.  As was pointed out in 2000, you have the right to vote, but there is no law mandating you have to vote intelligently.

Yeah, you know things are getting bad when we feel the need to legislate common sense. Let the public rake the condo owner over the coals. What is really ashame is there seems to be more and more self-hated "Americans" each year. Do they really believe the US will be a better place in their idyllic socialist utopia?

Yes.  But then you are talking about the people that have never thought in their life, just "cared".

Perhaps they should "care" to speak to some Eastern Europeans while the memories are still fresh.They could get all the "workers paradise" stories they could handle.
