I’ve argued till I was blue in the face about how they violate all that we hold dear regarding private property. A lot of people don’t care because they delude themselves into believing it protects the value of their house.
I’d tell that HOA that if any of them felt like they were man enough they could come to my house and try and remove those bumber stickers.
Something tells me the HOA is about to receive a lot of negative publicity.
Are they going to also make him take the bow tie off of his Chevy?
They are a blight on America's landscape; it is they who offend.
Can there be any doubt as to the sickness, that is Liberalism? Good Grief, America. . .come to your senses!
Condominiums can be great, so long as Condo-Nazis don’t take over.
he needs to immediately contact his local Marine Corps league
He can get round the clock protection for his car in 6 hours after that.
Also, how many HOA’s have the right to tow vehicles? If the vehicle is parked on the Vets property, I think the vet would be within his rights to protect his property!
Also, a preemptive strike, a letter or injunction against all local tow companies, might be in order here!
Hasn't done a very good job in the last couple of years, has it.
Good to know.
I thought Oba-Hussein might be the reason for the first shot of the new Civil War but it could be the the HOA (sounds the way it should, for a Marine cheer and also a shorter derrogative way to describe the association, too).
Gee, why didn't they go in person?
Wuss bunnies
You should also note that’s a PERFECT opportunity to exercise your right to defend yourself and your property... as you’re cleaning a gun.
Many hard core liberals simply do not understand property rights, self determination and the basic boundries needed by human beings.
I’ve seen some board members over the years go pretty overboard with wanting to enforce “rules” that WAY over way over the line. In most cases other board members check them with a reasonable perspective
In this case, it looks like the management company rep. and the President tried to get cute without board approval. Both should be summarily expelled from their duties and the management company should be disciplined by their state regulatory agencies and condemned by their business associations.
Sadly, everyone in the Association, and perhaps in HOA’s across the state later on, will suffer as a result if this idiot, moronic move.
During the years I was a Realtor, I recommended my clients avoid developments that have HOAs. If they insisted on living there, I insisted they carefully read the HOA by-laws. In VA, they’re required to be in the hands of the buyer within 72 hours of contract ratification.
Liberal totalitarian bastards are hiding under their beds.
Right there with you. The HOA in my area is giving my next door neighbor a hard time over his work truck being parked in his driveway. (he’s an electrician) Its a full sized van with roof racks - doesn’t fit in his garage. It’s a nice truck, I don’t see why anyone complains. If the HOA keeps up, I’m going to tell him to park it in my driveway a couple of nights a week. Then he can tell them it is no longer “permanently” parked in his driveway. They have to allow temporary parking of work trucks or nothing would ever get done. :-)
Nazis all.
I hear you. The subdivision I live in originally began an HOA, but never elected any governing members, and did not develop any charter or other governing rules. That was years before I moved into the area. I had my 5th wheel parked in front of my home for a short period after first obtaining it (I inherited it after my father’s death from a motor cycle accident). We were looking around for place to rent storage, which took a few days. A couple of neighbors got together and tried to force me to move it by putting an HOA letter in my mailbox that threatened me with legal action. I parked the 5th wheel directly in front of her home for most of a day, and then took it to the storage place. She nearly had a cow when she came home to find it in front of her house.
