A Florida homeowners association has ordered a gay couple to remove a small rainbow flag from their mailbox, but the defiant couple says they have no intention of taking down their Pride Month display.
Bob Plominski and Mike Ferrari of Oakland Park, Florida, say they were issued an HOA citation on June 5 that ordered them to take the flag down by June 15 or pay a $50 daily fine.
Plominski and Ferrari told NBC Miami they were confused by the notice because they have flown the pride flag before and posted political signs during election years in the neighborhood without any problems. “I got upset,” Plominski said. “We’ve done this before and it’s a simple showing of our pride to the community and it’s up for 30 days.
