I don't know about these rules but I wonder if they can prohibit you from displaying the flag in a window where it is hung inside your premises.

It’s a shame to me that someone (apartment management or anyone) would complain and make a fuss about you showing your patriotism and choose to fly the American flag. I’m sure there are other, much more offensive displays on other people’s apartments.There are other things these poeple need to worry about.. not the Flag. I’m sorry you are having a conflict. I agree with american_flag_uk, it IS your right and privilege. Go get em!! Let us know what happens.

I called for a third time today and was told I am able to fly the US or military flag.

Actually, that particular law is not part of the flag code per se. That's a a good thing in this case, because the flag code is purely voluntary, while the law has some teeth -- property management and homeowners' associations can be sued if they violate it.

I've seen both sides of homeowners' associations (my wife was on the board of ours for many years). They have a legitimate interest in setting some limits on what members can do on their properties, but there is a definite tendency to go overboard. The 2006 flag display law is a good compromise; it makes clear that citizens have a right to fly the flag, but gives the associations the power to restrict displays that are dangerous or inappropriate for some other legitimate reason.

Think that it is your right also.

what about commercial buildings? can a property manager take down the National Ensign w/out forewarning us? is there a similar code that references commercial as does the residential code?
