Vet's Patriotic Stickers Under Fire

DALLAS - Frank Larison is a disabled veteran with more than 14 years of service, including more than a year of combat duty in Vietnam.

The 58-year-old former Marine now finds himself under attack by his Dallas homeowners association for displaying seven decals on his vehicle supporting the Marine Corps.

"To me, it's being patriotic, and it shows that I served," the veteran told FOX 4.

The board says the decals are advertisements that violate HOA rules, and must be covered or removed.

Otherwise, the homeowners association for The Woodlands II on The Creek --- where Larimore has lived for eight years --- says in a letter it will tow the car at Larimore's expense. The board also threatens to fine him $50 for any future incident.

Larimore says the decals, ranging from the Marine emblem to Semper Fi slogans, aren't advertisements for anything. "You can't buy freedom," he reasoned.

HOA's are evil.

I wonder if any of the members who are trying to enforce this decision have the balls to back their position on camera.

I took over one HOA just because they were Nazis. I worked my way in and became President. The single family homes under my tenure suffered very little. HOAs in general, suck. This Marine needs to sue those Nazis. I doubt there is anything in the covenants that specifies what stickers can be on one's vehicle. (I have read of covenants that specify how new one's vehicle must be, what kind, etc)

What asshats. I hope they are humiliated in the court of public opinion.

Our HOA (in Texas no less) was a bunch of busybody Nazis as well.

Solution: Have a bright red car cover made with giant Marine Corps  emblem on it and the words, in big letters, SEMPER FIDELIS on both ends. Cover the car when parked in driveway.

HOAs are just plain evil.  I can't count the number of stories where they have fined people for having flag poles and flying the US Flag.

A man went through that in the neighborhood I used to live in.  After about a 2 year battle, he gave up fighting the  :censored: HOA.  He did manage to attract enough attention to get a state law passed making it illegal for any HOA to restrict flying the American Flag.   :cheersmate:  The HOA was really pissed about that, but had no choice but to let him re-install his flagpole and flag.  Heh.  That  :censored: HOA is the reason we moved into the country and built a house in the middle of 10 acres.  Eff 'em.

Son of a Bitch! How in the hell can this happen in America? We have lost our place! We can no longer be Americans without some liberal piece of shit crapping in our breakfast! When are we going to wake up to these travesties?

Where I live this would never happen! We would run you out of town on a rail, after we tarred and feathered your un-patriotic ASS!

Damn! I cannot believe this is happening!

WAKE UP AMERICA, or we're not going to have an America to wake up to!

Yep, the president of the HOA there is indeed a dem contributor. I believe on Huckabee's show too it was said that cars there had political stickers that never received letters about it. Sounds like the usual "a law for thee, but not for me" liberal. If this is the case, it exhibits why liberals are so dangerous. They seek to quiet any opposition and will attempt to make the rules that favor themselves in that effort. They've successfully hijacked terms like fascist when they are themselves the term that they have hijacked. Artful manipulators, the lot of them.

Conservatives would do well to do what they did in the 80's and beat them at their own game with regards to this manipulation. Conservatives generally have truth on their side with regard to history. It's important that they put courtesy aside and correct inconsistencies when liberals spout their crap in front of groups of people easily swayed. I've found that liberals when challenged with logics and truth on their manipulation generally hide after they respond once--scurrying away like bugs in the light or get so shrill and lose all manners that they make themselves look unstable with the hysterical rantings that ensue--usually ends up with them running away from that too when they realize the self-control they've lost in front of others or they try to justify their hysterics by the issue being so important. They can be reminded that Hitler got passionate and hysterical at times too--he felt his hysterics were justified as well, but his hysterics did not make the slaughter of Jews, Catholics, and Poles right.How loud one gets does not make him or her the moral authority on the topic. I have no problem any more with demonizing liberals in this way--a taste of one's own medicine and all that.
