This is truly sad that our courts are wasting money on this.

homeowner assoc.'s suck.  and this is a particularly stupid issue for them to take a stand on.  


but you sign a contract when you move into an area with a homeowners assoc, basicly agreeing to take their rules as law.  
the guy signed a contract, he's screwed.

a contract is only as good as the courts say it is.

during the 91 war , i had a co-worker in the same situation, he hung a US flag outside his condo, the homeowner assoc told him to take it down, he told them to try and take it down. the homeowner assoc backed down and the flag stayed up.

according to his contract he is allowed a 21 foot pole, his is 20 foot.  I say the home owner's association is gonna end up getting sued.

The real problem is the fact that "Judge" Brunson is a despicable example of an American citizen.

to many real judges pretending to be judge judy...

"Condo Commandoes" are such a major pain there is even a seperate branch of law that deals with their pettiness.

I'd never buy anything with a Homeowner's Association. I want to be able to barbeque anything, anytime, I want to be able to work on my own car in my own driveway, I want to be able to let my grass get a little long, choose whatever color I want for my home, and fly any flag I want, whenever I want. Most of all, I want my home to be my castle. A place where I am King, a place where I can get rid of unwanted guests and their unwanted input by simpy saying: Get off my property.

Florida LOL

I still remember the old geezer they interviewed on TV. "Well I thought since Al Gore was #1 canidate I simply hit the 1st spot on the ballet."

[Gadfly]

Just a wild guess here, but something tells me this Judge is not a Republican, so I don't think that you can blame this one on the the Jebster.  Besides, she is elected not appointed.

Sounds like a bad deal for him and his flag.  If I were he, I would go paint a big bellybutton flag in the street in front of the president of the homeowners assoc. one night.

actually if you read the article more carefully, the city's ordinance allows a 21 foot pole.  they don't actualy say if the homeowners assoc allows any pole at all or exactly what their reg's are.

You need to get you facts straight before you spout off, speaking Spanish is not a requirement for a teaching license.

Having a brain in your head is, sorry you need not apply.


Yes, there was a voting problem but it was not a language problem. (how many languages do you speek). The problem was primarily one of age and understanding, this has been solved, how are you doing on your bigotry?

Funny.Thats not what I heard from a "Teacher" in Fla.
