Maybe the robot was sent to start the fire.
Summary: the government ending up killing someone who didn’t want to mow his lawn.
Their main goal Wednesday was to get the man in compliance with the local homeowners association.
are they serious? they city has no authority to enforce homeowners association rules, possibly city code but not hoa rules. crazy lets see the rest of the story.
city of austin ordinance
grass cannot be in excess of 12 inches
4ft is imminent danger

Sounds like a suicide-by-cop.
I side with the dead guy.
There are cities all around this country where people openly defecate, urinate, vomit, have sex of all kinds, sell and use drugs in the open for everyone to see.
It isn’t even their residence, they have no right to be there. They are just homeless (worthless) squatters.
Nobody (from the government) shoots them!
>>And if you do not do as ordered they can take your home and sell it.
Or just shoot you apparently.
lets see the search warrant !
Just leave him alone.
He has to come out eventually or the problem will just work it's self out naturally.
Sometimes not doing something is the correct option.
Maybe the robot was sent to start the fire.

I haven’t read the thread or the article in the paper
but did the Robot survive or was it lost to the fire?
I agree, you should call yourself Logicman!!!
It's odd how we coddle, subsidize and make excuses for millions of criminals entering our country illegally, at will, yet citizens are treated like this?
In fact, I'd bet the "authorities" were fully aware of this man's demeanor and or mental state, yet they just kept poking the bear, a bear who likly just wanted to be left alone.
Comply or Die is the policy.
It does not matter what the order from the Government may be. If you refuse a Government order, and escalate that refusal vigorously enough, the agents of the Government will eventually resort to lethal force.
Government is a dangerous power tool. It matters very much who is running it.
Classic government over reach

Totally agree, but still an over reaction on the homeowner’s part.
Most SWAT team members enjoy killing humans.

Well shooting black/white round circle targets
get boring I suspect.
.
City of Austin doesn’t care when they kill some people.
They will celebrate.
Comply or die. It’s the same reason they defend and protect Antifa.
.
At least the neighbors now have a finely manicured lawn to look at....with a burned out hulk of a house on it.
So Austin just skips the reeducation camp and goes straight to killing anyone who does not comply.
Liberty is dead.
It doesn’t matter how much is earmarked for assisting the mentally ill. It will not be substantive or helpful. It will be grifted off to pay the salaries of the Karens running various agencies or charities, hire more staff and get new offices and furniture. The rules won’t change.
So they will still keep SWATting the mentally ill.
Quote: Of note: He was shot dead because he was shooting at the cops. Almost everyone knows that’s suicide.
Except this guy.

Oh, he probably knew it too. Sad that it comes to this, but this somehow rings similar to the lady who was found dead (suicided) in her car after many years.
Except he probably decided to just kick back and watch netflix until the money ran out, or ...
Poor fella.
In the VAST majority of cases, you are told that the home you are buying is part of an HOA before closing. At closing, you are presented with the official docs of the HOA. It is damn near impossible to impose an HOA after a community is built. I believe - at least in New Mexico - that it requires 80% of the residents to agree in a physical meeting.
And with the idea that if you choose not to join a home owners association they can blatantly forge papers saying you joined.
Again, they are papers that you are presented with at closing and you have to sign off that you accept them. Should you not be so informed, and you find out after closing that there is an HOA, the title company is financially liable. You can either have them pay your dues, forever, or they must purchase your house back from you.
And if you do not do as ordered they can take your home and sell it.
Kinda, sorta. If you do not follow the rules you agreed to when you purchased your home, they can fine you until you are in compliance. At a certain point - should the fines remain unpaid - the board will place a lien on the property for the amount due. Our HOA recently collected over $12K in fines from a lien after the house was sold. In this case, a title company that did not do their due diligence ended up paying the $12K because they did not inform the new owners of the lien.
