When someone does something wrong, that does not give you the right to do something wrong back. We all taught our children that.

We can go round and round with this. Yes, it is wrong and against the law to touch someone else's property such as the mowers. BUT, it is also wrong and against the law to block egress from one's property to a public street. ( someone up thread posted the law about blocking driveways to a public street)
If the offending party can not be located to be asked to move the items that are blocking the driveway, what are we to do if a person needs to leave in an emergency? It is a scary thought.
