So the tenant was whoring for some media attention? Shocker.
Still something we don't know. Did you really think the complex would come out with a statement saying "we don't allow US flags because they are a threat to the Muslim community" after the blowback they've already seen?

I think the complex addressed it here:
Now of course if you just want to read some pro-Muslim, anti-American sentiment in to it, you're going to do it regardless of what the complex says.
Is that what we're doing here?

Stars and Stripes Misunderstanding
June 19, 2014
We understand that the recent events surrounding the display of the United States Flag on the balcony railing has caused a great deal of consternation. We regret that the policies, consistent with the hotel and apartment industry, have created an incorrect perception that we are not supportive of patriotism.
Residents are allowed to display flags inside their balconies. However, tarps, tents, flags, towels or clothing are not permitted on or over the railing of balconies and patios in order to maintain an aesthetically consistent image.
We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable and pleasant living environment to our residents through service, attention to detail and exacting expectations. Our goal is to deliver a positive living experience for all of our residents and regret the misunderstanding.
We apologize for anything that may have been communicated regarding the policy that was offensive to Mr. Tran at The Lodge on El Dorado in Webster, Texas. We admire our resident’s patriotism and proudly display our Country’s flag at the entrance to our community.
Now of course if you just want to read some pro-Muslim, anti-American sentiment in to it, you're going to do it regardless of what the complex says.
Is that what we're doing here?

But you imagine it is a possibility considering the blow back they would encounter here in Houston, TX??? Especially considering the reason they told him to take it down was based on their policy...why would they make such an incendiary statement when all they had to do is say "it's the rules"???
