I can sympathize with the viewpoint that these residents should have read the fine print/clarified the issue before they moved in, but I have a hard time with someone wanting the flag removed, as long as it is flown within the limits of the national regulations for flying our nation's flag. We have them, just as most countries do, to ensure that it is treated with dignity and respect. If their flag(s) are frayed, faded, or their manner of display is otherwise outside the regulations then it should come down.
