no, our forebearers would be appalled that you don’t realize the freedoms they established DO NOT IMPACT HOAs......you only are under the rules of an HOA if YOU CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZE TO BE. Just like a bowling league, a work out gym, or a place of employment. If you don’t like it, don’t DO IT.
Therefore, it is not an issue of freedom.
My goodness, don’t set your hair on fire just because you’re wrong. It happens to everyone at some point ;)
