Just in time for the 7th anniversary of 9/11.  Nice.

Operators of a Vancouver, Wash. Apartment complex subsidized by the taxpayer-funded Department of Housing and Urban Development, also known as HUD, have told residents they cannot fly or display American flags on or in their homes.

Residents of the Brandt Terrace apartment complex received a letter in August saying they could be evicted for displaying “signage” on their homes, including flags.

The ban extended to displaying flags in windows or putting small flags in planters or other outside locations.

The ban does not sit well with residents, including a Vietnam veteran, many of whom wanted to fly American flags on Thursday, the seventh anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.

Some residents continued to display flags on their property in defiance of the directive.

A manager at the complex, Dariya Tinkova, told KATU News she was “following the community rules” in enforcing the ban but would not say who was making the rules.
