Great flag etiquette Scott! Wish more people would follow those rules.

I want all my neighbors to fly the flag, drive a Camaro, and own guns. Couldn't be a safer neighborhood!

The light should be ON the flag. Lighting up the area around it doesn't count.

Dude, you wouldn't believe some things that have to do with U.S. Flags...
CCRs, City Ordinances, even Noise Ordinances (from flag flapping) are becoming commonplace...Church bells have long been a "nuisance" and regulated to the max....

...Not too far from me is a Trump golf course...He flys a huge flag in one of the most beautiful settings in the world...Neighbors complain, the city is suing him over it...He pays thousands in fines weekly just to keep it there...It's ridiculous...

Damn rednecks....

I keed, i keed. :P

Does sound kind of silly though, I'm more of a left leaner myself but I'd be happy to see neighbors flying the flag. What on earth are they fearful of? And why in the world would they actually ask you to take the flag down? Downright stupid, funny really.

Good for Trump!

Seriously though, if one has such a problem with our flag, then get the hell out of the Country. No one is keeping their sorry ass here!
