The witless have been with us a long time. I don't worry too much about them. Others (like you) do enough worrying for both of us. Restrictions on property are listed in the title search. The new owners knew about it before they bought. If they didn't understand, they should have asked their own lawyer. If they did understand, they should abide by their promise.

In terms of freedom, I support that. This has nothing to do with freedom. It has to do with a non-property-owner telling someone who owns property what he (or she) can or cannot do with it. I am against the government doing that and I am against individuals' doing that.

Jim... We're never going to see eye to eye on this.

I can live with that.

Will you be OK with it?
