Someone should offer this man a tin-foil hat. All his problems would be solved.

There's nothing I can add. The fax(es) speak for themselves.

This sounds like a job for eFax. A full email box is better than churning out reams of paper.

Neighbors reported King to county officials over the empty beer kegs, furniture and lawn equipment piled up outside the house where King lives with his 80-year-old mother.

Have the city "officials" never heard of call-blocking?

The funny thing is that the local government has been doing the same thing for years with respect to law writing. They have spammed the communities with new "codes" to the extent that one guy with a fax machine noting code violations can overwhelm them.

I assume that they cannot deny this guy the right to fax them, just like any other citizen has the right to fax their government. Unless they charge him with harassment, they either have to accept his faxes or shut off their machines to everyone.

I'm waiting with bated breath for the dozens and dozens of responses in support of this clown.

We have a lot of people here on FR just as nutty as he is.

He does indeed have the right to do this. Some might even think it is his responsibility. After all, If his unauthorized sign had to come down because the City has codes against them, then no one should have an unauthorized sign. Right? Otherwise, why have such a code in place?

He is using the tools and rules of the city government against them. All in all its a good thing. When the folks who wrote and passed such ignorant codes did so, they thought they alone could tell everyone how to live. A Reposte is always fun to watch.

The added bonus is that he was costing the city/county a ton of money on fax, repair, maintenance, paper, and archive storage. Why is that good? Well, maybe next time the city will recomend the 'better than you' neighbors talk to him and ask if they can help him in some way rather than sicking the code inspectors on him.

Oh, they have to hold on to all documents for no less than seven years. In one place I worked (City) they had to hold on to them for ten.

Nah, he probably lives in a declining neighborhood and the city doesn't want to deal with it.

Great post. This gives me an idea for the next time I have a problem with the Principal at my son's school.
