Georgia Homeowners Association Blocks Construction Of Charity House For Disabled Veteran (VIDEO)
Even after laying his life on the line for the country, and sustaining injuries because of it, Sean Gittens couldn't get the charity house he was offered.

In the town of Evans, Georgia, the family of Gittens, a disabled veteran, is moving out of a development known as Knob Hill after the Georgia Homeowners Association halted construction on a house meant for him. The house would have been provided by the charitable organization Homes For Troops, which builds homes for veterans who sustained life altering injuries in the line of duty.

AOL Real Estate reports that Sgt. Gittens had been serving in the military since 1988 and had been deployed in Kuwait before being paralyzed by an IED blast in Iraq in 2008

1. These are the first to support war and wave the flag
and the last to do anything to assist those who have been disabled by war.
