After HOA demands pro-cop flag taken down, family shows support for LE in a different way

A family was told to remove a pro-cop flag because it was “racist and offensive”

By Police1 Staff

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — After a homeowner’s association told a family their “Blue Lives Matter” flag was “racist and offensive” and it needed to be taken down, they found a new way to show their support of LE.

ActionNewsJax reported that former police officer Jeff Gaddie’s daughter flew the “Blue Lives Matter” flag outside her home for years, but a neighbor recently complained it was racist and they were asked to take it down.

In response, Gaddie rigged up a projector to display the flag on the garage door of his daughter’s home.

“It doesn’t seem to quite be covered that a projector from a vehicle projecting on your garage door is a violation of the HOA,” Gaddie told the news station.

The rules state that American and military flags are the only flags allowed.

According to ActionNewsJax, the board has not responded to Gaddie or commented to the news station.
