as much as we all get annoyed with Donald Trump, I have to side with him on this one. He is being fined for flying a large American Flag. He has the right to be proud of his country. Fuck the people who want him to take it down.

Say patriots, in your country you have laws, right? With that in mind, (re)read the article if you will...

Regulations say that flagpoles can only be 42ft high. Trump's was 80ft, that's nearly double. He put it up on Oct 3rd and they gave him until Nov 27th to take it down or apply for approvals. But he just kept picking his nose. Tought luck homo.

And if you'll excuse me now, I gotta be a patriot and strangle someone with the Belgian flag :p

Thread title should read:

"Trump getting fined for violating local zoning regulations, wtf?"

I'm just agreeing with you that they didn't fine him for flying the flag, they fined him for violating the zoning regulations. The wtf thing is to keep with the theme of the thread title.

Yes. Trump has violated [U]several[/U] local zoning ordinances including: heighth of an object, not getting prior approval to put the object up, and setback violations. Once again the media and Sir Trump have taken this story completely out of context and are using it to stir the pot.

I think it's partriotic to respect the established legal ordinances within the community in which you reside and to go through the appropriate channels to challenge them if you disagree.

^^^ Couldn't have said it better myself! What a stupid headline that is to try and stir the pot. Also stupid that some people in this thread bought into it.

Speaking of patriotism... It's Australia Day and it's a beautiful summer's day outside. What I'm still doing here speakng to you guys I'll never know!
