Without reading the article and having dealt with an HOA in the past I will guess he was causing more traffic in the area

In a nation of so many firearms how are these people ballsy enough to pull this nonsense. It seems like a great way to end up trapped in a burning house.

As in pissing off someone that lives in your neighbourhood by being this level of awful seems like a supremely bad idea.

I found an update about the vote to remove the three board members.

Homeowners voted 190 to 20 in favour of removal, however the board cancelled the vote claiming there wasn't a 24 hour notice given to the community and subsequently that 210 votes might not qualify a quorum of more than a thousand homes.

Man, I could never live with an HOA. It’s just dumb.

They are suprisingly difficult to avoid. Shared units, condos and apartments all have associations that are just an HOA with a different name. The only difference for these are that they are responsible for replacing the shared roof every 20-ish years or so.

HOA seems to be such a stupid thing. Glad there's nothing even remotely that bad everywhere.
