There’s no other word to describe it. As the husband of a severely handicapped woman, I seethe with anger whenever I see abuse of the elderly, or abuse of the handicapped.
A lawsuit has just been filed in Las Vegas, Nevada by two handicapped elderly women, both military veterans, who are being hounded out of their HOA because they bought a van to accommodate their respective disabilities.
Illegal Handicap Van
Board members of the Spanish Steps Lakeside – Park View Estates Homeowners Association have decided the van used by the women is an illegal commercial vehicle despite the fact that it has handicap placards. The women have endured two years of threats, fines, liens and lawsuits.
Is the Americans with Disabilities Act not written in clear enough language for HOA bullies to understand? I guess once you’re elected as a gorilla on the HOA board, your DNA actually undergoes changes. At any rate, the lawsuit linked below is worth reading.
Why does the America Homeowners Association movement hate amateur radio operators with such vehemence? They are banned in every community in every state. HOAs used to ban traditional satellite antennas until Congress stepped on these Nazi neighborhoods. Now there are satellite dishes everywhere and they haven’t hurt property values. It’s now time for Congress to protect amateur radio operators.
Linked below is an excellent YouTube video that explains the reasons for the new proposed legislation before Congress.
Last night while watching PBS I heard an incredible quote: “If you’re on the right side of history you can make incredible things happen.”
Whew! That goes right to the heart of what those of us in this movement are trying to accomplish. And I think we really are on the right side of history. Homeowners are finally waking up. They’re discovering the fundamental corruption that infests Homeowners Associations, Condo Associations and Property Owners Associations. They’re contacting the news media. And reporters are beginning to dig deeply into the national Homeowners Association scam.
The story linked below is so bizarre that I don’t want to spoil it by trying to condense it. As you read it just tell yourself, “This kind of thing is going on everywhere!”
Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me. Aretha Franklin may be the greatest female jazz/blues artist in history but her Homeowners Association wants their money. And there’s nothing they RESPECT about her. Franklin admittedly has a poor record of paying her bills. And her condo association neighbors are now going after her for $11,000 in unpaid dues.
The Hills of Lone Pine Homeowners Association is trying to foreclose on her condo. Hopefully, this one will settle properly for all those concerned. But I’d hate to run up against the kind of lawyers she has access to.
