My camera has a ‘save’ option. I often take photos using an app call photomgrpro on my iphone. And it discards the picture if you do not save it. Why are people so skeptical about what someone posts?

Are the American Flags mentioned the flags folks put out for patriotic holidays or the flags on poles that are attached to the homes?

Y'all should be glad I didn't call the local constabulary (not community standards) on the bunch of you. It wouldn't have been multiple homes, it would've been multiple neighborhoods, in multiple villages throughout the entirety of The Villages. As for the nosy golf cart driver - whoever she is, if she reads this forum she knows who she is. And she knows she is just stirring the hornet's nest. And so does everyone else. Regarding anonymous complaints: I don't feel that the person who violates the deed restriction necessarily needs to know who submitted the complaint. But I DO feel that the Community Standards should require the name and address of the person complaining be recorded. Here's why: Someone who has a beef against a neighbor, who continually reports violations that might or might not even exist, needs to be confronted by Community Standards, and told to knock it off. If all complaints are anonymous, they have no way of doing that. Neighbors who have personal problems between them, need to not use "deed restrictions" as their weapon against their neighbor. You know that happens, it happens in ALL communities that have deed restrictions or condo rules. The only way to prevent this from happening is to require names and addresses of the complaining party to be recorded. It doesn't mean the homeowner ever has to actually find out who made the complaint. But Community Standards should keep records of this. |

If people use reporting deed restrictions as a personal "vendetta" the reported person first has to have a deed restriction.
You can't say Home 29 BayCayPlace has a bend over lady squatting and peeing in her front yard if they don't. Deed Compliance will do nothing. It will all make better sense when you move here full time. But you tell us you own in the Historical area and there are few deed restrictions there.

It's VERY easy to do that, and pile up the fines against those people. In addition, it is rude and a waste of Community Standards' time and efforts and an insult to their work, if you make them come out to investigate issues that don't exist, or issues you THINK are issues, but really aren't. Like - a bad lawn. Improperly cared for. But the truth of the matter, is that there was a bit of weed growth and your landscaper used appropriate weedkiller to get rid of the growth, and it's going to take a couple of weeks for that patch of lawn to look pretty again. If you are the only one who nitpicks on a regular basis against the same neighbor, YOU should be called out on it, not the neighbor. ESPECIALLY if it's things that Community Standards ends up not doing anything about. That is why Community Standards should know the names and addresses of each person who files a formal complaint. So that THEY can decide whether or not the person complaining is being a nuisance - and if they are, they can tell that complainer to cease and desist. |

In addition to the Flag Code, a separate provision contained in the Federal Criminal Code established criminal penalties for certain treatment of the flag.6 Prior to 1989, this provision provided criminal penalties for certain acts of desecration to the flag. In response to the Supreme Court decision in Texas v. Johnson7 (which held that anti-desecration statutes are unconstitutional if aimed at suppressing one type of expression), Congress enacted the Flag Protection Act of 1989 to provide criminal penalties for certain acts which violate the physical integrity of the flag.8 This law imposed a fine and/or up to one year in prison for knowingly mutilating, defacing, physically defiling, maintaining on the floor, or trampling upon any flag of the United States. In 1990, however, the Supreme Court held that the Flag Protection Act was unconstitutional as applied to a burning of the flag in a public protest.9 https://www.senate.gov/reference/res...df/RL30243.pdf Steve |

It's unlawful to do it, but the penalty created by the 1989 law was determined to be unconstitutional - without changing the law that made the act illegal in the first place. |
