I'm beginning to think you're either asinine or that you can't read and comprehend a simple statement.

How about because a decision had already been read by the executive board, which is comprised of members from local associations from across the state, on how such situations would be handled so that there would be statewide consistency?

Seriously, what kind of person prohibits a display in support of breast cancer awareness?
You don't even know what the WOA is comprised of, do you? You should like some of the fans I read, complaining about their state association.

Support all the charities you want, just do it within the guidelines that representatives from all local associations have previously agreed to. How difficult is that to do?

I swear you guys sound like fans, whining and complaining about officials. I'm done.
