Apartment Management Told Him To Remove His Flag On The 4th Of July, So He Does THIS Instead According to reports, a Colorado man is fighting an order from the management at his apartment complex stating that he must remove an American flag hanging from his balcony. Samuel Adams reportedly told The Greeley Tribune that his grandfather was in the Army during World War I, and his father served in the Navy. In honor of those family members and the upcoming Fourth of July holiday, Adams hung an American flag over the balcony of his apartment. Shortly thereafter, his apartment complex sent him a letter asking him to remove the flag. Please do not clutter with personal belongings, the letter read. Balconies and patios must be maintained in a neat, clean and attractive condition. Adams was shocked about the letter he received, and he even recorded a video of himself expressing his anger. I have never done anything like this before, he told reporters. But it was the right time and it was the right moment. I wanted to be a patriotic American and give tribute to our founding fathers and our veterans, and to have management say the flag is inappropriate or comparable to trash is reprehensible to me.
