Their heads on pikes mounted above the sidewalk of the residence would be a good start.

Wonder how much of a campaign contribution you have to make to be an "approved" contractor in Sarasota.

The city of Sarasota is run by hard core leftists who have been elected by other hard core leftists. It became that way when California moved here in the early 2000’s. As such, we are getting the government we deserve. This incident is just another reminder that big government is there to serve itself. We’ll see if the left rallies around the people they pretend to want to help or if they side with government bureaucrats who want to steal this woman’s home.

The myths being perpetrated in sponsored propaganda say that we should not own property and that we can do nothing about corrupt government.

It’s nearly time to stop the slavery. Support open source equipment design and efforts toward much more distributed production. Build the “robots” yourselves and own them, too. Production is for everyone—not only for the few.

You should own your own property. And after the defaults, have the government serve you.

"Bunch of jack boots who are just upset they were born too late to live in Nazi Germany."

That's where many of them are descended from. Then, they came from the northeast like locusts, some after brief stops on the west coast, some directly toward the heart of our country. They get degrees and look for local governments to rob us from.

Don’t let them hide behind the “government” or “regulations”.
I thought "I vas only followink ahwders" ended when we destroyed the nazis. And what happened to the 60's leftist mantra, "either you're part of the problem or you're part of the solution"?

And you will be remembered for it. People watch.

I do the same for my retired neighbors, mow and snowblower.

According to our Constitution she has a right to know which neighbors complained about (accused) her. And the petty cubicle-dwelling government zombies who instigated these proceedings are supposed to be public servants that operate in the open so their names should be of record too. Then the public could redress their grievances in the right places. but we all know that little tyrants prefer to operate in obscurity.

You are a good man and a good neighbor as well.

Growing up, we had a retired widow next door.

My mom made sure I shoveled her sidewalk as well as ours when it snowed, and generally looked after her until I married at 22.

She had a corner property, so there was a sidewalk on two sides. Thanks, mom! ;)

I lived in Sarasota for 11 years...15 years ago...

It was a wonderful little city....

There was always a leftist bend to the city because of the local college...

Nothing out of control though...

I see the fascist have taken over...

Very sad...

So what ever happened to the America of old, where instead of complaining about the condition of her home, the neighbors banded together and helped her fix it up?

Major homosexual infestation?

- I had to prove it was legal or they would fine me $250 a day until I destroy property that I valued.

What happened to innocent until proven guilty?

“What happened to innocent until proven guilty?”

It does not apply to “civil” matters such as zoning regulations. You have to go through all the zoning first, with its appeals. Then you can appeal to the civil courts.

If you have enough money and time, you might win.

Kind of like having to travel a thousand miles and spend a thousand dollars to get the right to appear in court for a traffic fine. Sure... due process is there to assert your rights... but the process is the punishment.

Still, we are far better protected than most of the rest of the world.
