I think the conflict is about whether we have a "duty" to complain about any and all infractions. Or we if should refrain from complaining unless we are truly offended. Quote:

Oh my. Oh my. We have a village full of 97 scofflaws, and the developer drops the hammer. Somebody should stifle that mean developer.
Imagine. Enforcing deed restrictions. Oh dear, I bet somebody here probably signed restrictions that only apply to everybody else. Yeah. That's it. |

I know they are all over in our district. I don't believe a flag pole could be considered a lawn ornament unless you use it for uses otherwise intended. On our street there about 7 where our house is. When the developement first sold out the neighbors all helped each other place and set the poles. One was a former VCDD member and former marine. When we moved in the rope was missing . There was no shortage of help available when I repaired it and hoist ed our flag.

"Condo Nazis" Not appropriate reference. Why can't we discuss vigorously without becomming venemous?

I didn't give two seconds thought at closing about yard gnomes. All I thought about was we made it. That's right. We made it and bought our house. I didn't give it another thought until this thread started. In my past life there were association people that dealt with violations. No, I'm not asking for this, but it worked. Simply stating what I have experienced so probably what I expected. I certainly would not expect that a person with no vested interest could cause this kind of grief. 97 people had their lives changed in some way because one person complained. I have a friend who has a stone in her garden with her sons name who was killed in Iraq so we would have the freedom to debate gnomes. It is well hidden but if you go in her garden you can find it if you have nothing better to do or on a vendetta. To me it isn't as simple as rules are rules. Do we want all houses to be identical with no personality? Some might say this is what the restrictions say.

A quick google search shows that term being used since 2008. Maybe not PC by today's standards, but one used many times as a descriptive for overzealous HOA leaders.

Since this is Mothers Day, let me quote my mom: two wrongs don't make a right.

Doesn't make it right!! Civil discourse not name calling.

Didn't say it was right. I explained background of a term. Try to focus more on the content of posts and not on trying to divert the attention to something else.

They name calling was , in fact , part of the content of the post. My point was , stop the name calling and talk rationally and civily about the subject at hand. Rational civil discourse will produce more light and much less heat.
