frick man, we get it. You think he is lying. It's not a bad guess, but you went from suspicious to absolutely certain in about 3 minutes.
Honestly, this seems to be the best guess as far as the truth. The guy told a very one sided part of the discussion with the whole scares muslims thing thrown in their by himself.

If the manager is a Muslim, I could see him/her saying something stupid like "As a Muslim and former Iranian citizen, this offends me" and he repeated it the way he did.
First off, many of the muslims I know who live in this country after coming from someplace else are extremely proud to be an american.
Second off, the apartment complex, as stated, displays a large american flag right at their entrance. And since this apartment complex is in texas, they almost just as certainly display the texas state flag as well.
So, tell me, if they themselves display an american flag, do you think they actually have a problem with the flag being displayed? Seriously?
People on this board are so desperate to believe they are being wronged they defy logic sometimes.

Based on what? We have one side of the story based on the conversation Mr. Tran had with the apartment complexes representative. We don't have a statement from that representative.

Do you know all Muslims in the US? Would you say all Muslims are proud to be in the US? Do you think any Muslims in this country hate the US? Is it possible for someone living in the US to still hate the country? Do US citizens of any kind ever do things that may appear hateful toward this country?

The article also states other tenants have patriotic displays. Maybe they thought the size and placement of the flag was threatening? I can't really explain someone else's thought process.

No, I am sure the apartment complex doesn't have a problem. But the people who wrote that statement probably weren't the ones who talked to him about the flag.
I'll just concede. The guy is probably...no that implies the possibility that he isn't...he's 100% a liar and this is all to get media attention. No use discussing it, even at a philosophical level.
