Why don’t we just pass a law officially stating that Hispanics are above the law. They can drive drunk, be in the country illegally, use fake documents, whatever they want to do. Everyone else may have to obey the law, but they simply do not. That’s what “Hispanic groups” want, advocate and insist upon, and what Hispanderers are eager to grant them. Might as well just get it over with.
” said Elizabeth Villafranca, whose family owns a Mexican restaurant in Farmers Branch. “We all know who paints their homes tropical colors.”
If by “tropical” she means the color of those big ugly parrots she could be correct. Bright red,yellow, and blue.
BUMP
Yeah!
“Why dont we just pass a law officially stating that Hispanics are above the law. They can drive drunk, be in the country illegally, use fake documents, whatever they want to do.

EXACTLY!
The question is, were those rules in place when you bought your home? If so, then you had the choice not to buy there.
So-called “Hispanic groups” want:
1. A set of laws that apply to them, and a different set for native born and legal immigrants.
2. They get to do, act, and whatever as much as they damn well please and anyone that disagrees with them is “racist”, “xenophobic”, “mean”, and “not open to multiculturalism and diversity”.
3. They get to take over wherever they please and the hell with everyone else.
4. They will get in everyone’s face, “protest”, “strike”, stamp there feet, hold their breath until they turn blue, turn out en masse with their non-US flags, “boycott” and in general make pains of themselves until they get their way like the spoiled brats they are.
5. They have no intention of learning English or remotely integrating into American culture like the millions of L-E-G-A-L immigrants did 100-some years ago or like L-E-G-A-L immigrants do today that are proud of the USA and proud to become A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N-S.
6. They want to make the USA into Mexico North by any way or means available.
If they don’t like the rules here, they should leave. The USA is not Mexico or wherever. Not yet, anyway.
The neighbors aren't happy, and many of those neighbors are (legal) Mexican-Americans.
My home predates the township. I bought the place after living in it for 4 years as a renter.
There are so many petty little bylaws here it would blow your mind. There is even a per faucet fee for replacing existing plumbing!
Needless to say, many folk ignore most of these laws, but a $3000 fine for not asking permission to cut my own trees is ridiculous no matter when it was passed.
I'm not fond of illegal colonization, but if they are here legally, I don't care what color they paint their home. In fact, I rather like the tropical colors to break up the monotony of uniformity.
I, for instance, have encouraged clover growth in my lawn to the extent that the grass is almost gone. One neighbor (a liberal busybody) thinks it's terrible because it might send seed into his uniform lawn for which he spends a small fortune fertilizing, watering and constantly mowing.
Another neighbor loves it because it stays greener, needs cutting half as often and requires no fertilizer and watering. He's asked for some starter clumps for his yard this fall. As I told him, it is great to live in a 1970's neighborhood built before the lawn nazis took over.
Your story is, I'm afraid, all too typical of what happens when the lawn nazis and local nannies take over neighborhoods.
Where do you live?
The ghettoization of a neighborhood.

You nailed it!
It happens in good neighborhoods too...
I used to drive through a neighborhood in Huntington Beach on my way to work....very nice houses....some idiot painted his house the ugliest s#!t brown I have ever seen. Sticks out...well....like a pile of s#!t. His neighbors had to be pissed.

A house like that can murder property values!
I think this falls in the same category as typical zoning regulations. Some regulations are create to protect property rights. If your next door neighbor chooses a paint scheme that looks like a circus, it will definitely have an impact on your property value...likely a negative impact. The same applies to leaving junk cars on the front lawn, lawns overgrown with weeds or covered with garbage.
Sounds like Elizabeth is making fun of Black folks.

Its quite possible that the latinos are acting in a racially charged manner that itself needs investigation.
