“A Sad Day for Old Glory and Our State Flag at Our Home of Residence
It is a sad day in Hawaii hearing of the deferment of House Bill 2311, which would allow for the use of flag poles to display the US or State Flag on the premise of one's home in a planned community. To many Veterans and private citizens living in these large planned communities throughout Hawaii, it is disheartening that a small gesture such as the flying of our US or State Flag will continue to be restricted to fly only on selected holidays as it is currently allowed. How sad when a measure to permit the airing of one's dirty laundry on a open clothesline in a planned community association was passed last year, yet a fabric symbolizing our Nation and our State was relegated to various restrictions set forth by these associations. In homes all over this Great Country, Old Glory and our State Flags were freely flown without restrictions yet not so in this here
