Code enforcement fines...arrested for putting a statue in your yard. How distinctly Orwellian. Anyone started a fund for this guy yet?
I saw a report on this guy on 20/20 or one of those shows.
While the guy raises some valid questions about property rights vs. community standards, he seemed to be a total A-hole, spoiling for a fight with his neighbors or a shootout with the police.
Instead of seeking to be a good neighbor and attempting to reach some compromises, he was belligerant, surly, and seemed like he had more than a few screws loose.
While this guy may have a legitimate agreement - the article indicates he wasn't arrested for putting up the statue - he was arrested for smarting off to the cop.
