I lived in an HOA community and got some nasty letters about my "junked" pick up that was legally licensed and insured. Another neighbor got a letter complaining about a deck she was adding. This gal hired a lawyer and did a little research. Turns out there was NO HOA!!!!! Just a bunch of busybodies that got together and decided they were the authority.One of these aholes used to walk her dog past my place on the other side of the street. My dog would go to the end of the drive and bark a friendly hello. One day the woman walked her dog on my side of the road and my dog stepped ONE paw into the street (I was watching). She called the sheriff and tried to get my dog arrested. Sheriff showed up and basically told me the woman was a b*tch and would tell her he gave me a ticket, which he didn't. Sold the place after that crap and moved to the country where I let the dogs roam free, shoot guns off my back porch and have all the junkers I want. Full redneck hillbilly.
